Our journey to discover the rhythms of nature continues. We have seen in this
article some ideas on why it is so important to consume seasonal fruit and vegetables.
As a mother told us in a previous comment, the ideal would be to be able to source directly from
local producers . In big cities it is not always easy, even if it is always easier to find a few stalls of direct producers in the
local markets or even be able to collect or have
boxes full of natural delicacies delivered to you!
So let's find out together what to put in your shopping bag in the month of May, a month that sees an explosion of
colors and scents that will help us
detoxify from the toxins accumulated during the cold season and fill up our little ones with energy.
Vegetables
- Asparagus
- Broad beans and peas
- New potatoes or "butter" potatoes (have you ever tried them? they are delicious!)
- Agretti (or friar's beard)
- Onions
- Chicory (try it "alla pugliese" with mashed broad beans...)
- Rocket
- Borage
- Spring onions/chives
- Nettle
- Endive/lettuce
Fruit
- Strawberries
- Medlars (which are actually harvested in autumn but reach full maturity in this period)
In short ... there is something for all tastes!
