In this month's issue

Welcome to March

Planning ahead is one of the pleasures of cooking, and in this month’s issue, we’ve got plenty for you to look forward to thanks to the start of spring and all the stunning produce the season brings. Wild garlic is a favourite, at its peak in March, and we’ve made it the star of the show in our buttery chicken & leek pie.

Plus, we have ideas for the month’s seasonal heroes: purple sprouting broccoli, cavolo nero and peas. I’m sure you’ll forgive me if I say they’re bound to put a spring in your step! As ever, we’re always seeking solutions to make our food shopping and cooking friendlier to the planet, and environment journalist Paul Allen shares 15 ways to reduce our carbon footprint. Shopping locally for seasonal produce is just one of those ideas, so do enjoy the abundance of fruit and veg that this month has to offer.
