What to Cook Now That Spring Is Here (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Spring officially arrived last week with the equinox on the 22nd, and so has all the produce. After spending three weeks in early autumn in the northern hemisphere, I felt a little disoriented season-wise.Autumn is my favourite season, but spring comes a close second. I love the warmer days and the way gardens and the mountain burst into colour. I’m convinced the birds sing a little louder too.I champion seasonal cooking, and I’ve loved keeping my autumn post going over the years, so I thought I

I took a much-needed month off and went more offline than I have since I started creating recipes for the internet. I only answered urgent emails and posted holiday stories on Instagram, which are saved in my highlights if you want to look back.
