A new day, a new season.

It seems summer is well and truly behind us, especially if you live in Melbourne! So out come the ugg boots, the nana rugs and best of all, old and new winter recipes.

Whilst visiting the St Kilda Farmers Markets on Saturday, we saw the change not only in the weather but the produce that was on offer too. The colour pallet of the produce was different, the textures were harder, bigger bolder and the team here at Tarian, couldn't be happier.

If you are fans of Tarian Pantry, you will know we love soup! And what better time to hug a cup of soup than Winter time. Over the next few weeks, we will be testing out some new recipes and posting them on line in order to tempt you. The wild pine mushroom soup was a teaser and hopefully you have been able to find some of these delights at your farmers' markets, they are a hearty treat.

Below is a list of the fruit & vegetables that you will be seeing moving forward:

FRUIT

Apples (all varieties)

Custard apples

Limes

Nashi pears

Persimmons

VEGETABLES

Beetroot

Broccoli

Brussel Sprouts

Cabbages

Fennel

Pumpkin

Silverbeet

Spinach

New season means eating the foods that are 'in season'. Organic produce and buying will ensure you are eating foods that are grown to the current climate, not grown because 'we can't live without it'. We should be enjoying the new food pallet and all that comes with a new season.

Tarian Pantry - we will continue to inspire whatever the season.
