What's in season: May
Watercress
Knock the socks off other salad leaves, with the peppery punch of watercress. Use simply in a salad, or whizz into a soup
-
Asparagus
Luxurious and deeply savoury, asparagus is a real seasonal treat. The green, woody stems and latticed tips are best steamed and simply served with melted butter.
-
Pea
Peas are tender and delicate in early summer. To retain their nutrition and deliciously sweet crunch, eat them as fresh as possible and never overcook.
Also good in May
