The hungry gap

The hungry gap

Spring is often referred to as ‘the hungry gap’. The winter veg have come and gone, and the summer crops are just seedlings.  Next year I’ll make sure there are some calabrese and cauliflowers for the table but we do have two delights ready to eat now (having finished off the last of the cabbage last night). At long last the purple sprouting broccoli has sprouted, a year after sowing, and (also a year later) the artichokes – the first two chokes we will have tonight along with a whole bunch of PSB – mmm.
