Asparagus!

The English asparagus season is so short that I am using as much of it while it is around as possible! Fantastic stuff, I have presented it with butter as a starter, in a risotto, as a centre in sushi and alongside other food as a vegetable. I have eaten it in a restaurant in a tempura style thin batter, deep fried. Delicious.

Then there are the Cornish new potatoes and the first broad beans will be along soon... And all those lovely summer veg, hopefully from the garden, to look forward to. Great time of year for food and thinking about future meals!
