Just a few days before the arrival of Christmas and almost everyone will have an idea of the menu for the most long-awaited day of the year, but are you sure of the freshness of the food you bring to your table?
As always, we like to pay special attention to the times of nature and the genuineness of food, so let’s discover together the most suitable fruit and vegetables to fill our dishes with taste and seasonality.
The green on our tables, but not only
Steamed, cooked in boiling water or sautéed in a pan with a little oil, vegetables are nice to see and good to eat. Excellent as a side dish and ideal for preparing delicious soups, pasta or rice dishes, they are a source of vitamins and minerals.
But what does December offer us?
- Green Broccoli
- Kale and Brussels Sprouts
- Chicory
- Red Beet
- Pumpkin
- Mushrooms
- Artichokes
Also can not miss celery, cauliflower, radishes and ... spinach!
Fruit in winter? Yes, but fresh and seasonal!
In the menu you can not miss the fruit, perhaps the most awaited dish at the end of a long day after so many courses, able to give a touch of sweetness before dessert.
Again, let's find out what nature gives us:
- Oranges
- Mandarins
- Pears
- Kiwis
- Pomegranate
And the sweet tooth will be spoiled for choice with dried fruits!
