October is a very abundant time of the year and while most people turn to pumpkins for the festivities, why not have a look at some other flavoursome vegetables, such as celeriac, wild mushrooms and cabbage?
Celeriac is the root base of a celery plant. It is unlike the celery stalk is many ways, from flaour, texture to scent. Personally, I can't eat celery but I love celeriac. Mixed in with potatoes as a mash or as a bed on which you cook your sea bass/duck etc. Have a go at this roast celeriac with marsala recipe.
Wild mushrooms are especially abundant this year and are packed with nutty goodness. How about this sauted wild mushrooms recipe?
Cabbage is exceptionally good for you. It can also be wonderfully tasty. It is inexpensive and very easy to cook, is highly versatile and really adds another dimension to a meal. One of my favourite meals is Bubble n Squeak.
Fruits this month include apples and sloe, and there is an abundance of game for a truly hearty variety in October.
On another note, my second book, The Island of the Mist, is now available on both Kindle and paperback formats:
