Have you ever thought of growing a small vegetable garden? From small plants on the windowsill, such as basil or rosemary, to enhance your dishes with a fresh, wholesome taste, to growing fruit or vegetables in the garden. For summer, for example, you can grow zucchini, tomatoes or eggplant for the cooler season cauliflower, cabbage, peas.
To warm up your autumn days, you can thus prepare some delicious soups or stews in which to bring out all the quality of the product in its freshness and authenticity, because the secret of a good dish always lies in its ingredients. For example, we at Bontà di Stagione, when making our products, always start from the feedstock because it is the most important step for our chefs to develop sublime recipes.
But what Are the vegetables to be grown in this season? First of all between autumn and winter comes the time to plant the seeds that we will see sprout in spring amidst the typical seasonal colors and scents. In the period between September and October you can plant the cauliflower, for those who the opportunity to sow seeds in the greenhouse will be able to do so in February, chicory or lettuce whose ideal growing temperature ranges between 15 and 18 degrees. And then peas, which you can sow in November, and kale, which withstands colder temperatures very well, prolonging its production throughout the winter and making soups that can warm the coldest days. An example? The Tuscan Soup, a great classic of Tuscan cuisine. We for example propose it among the Soup cups, gluten free and vegan, in which the quality of cannellini beans, the fragrance of tomato and the unmistakable taste of black cabbage are skillfully assembled in a harmonious balance of flavors.
