SEASONAL FOOD OF THE WEEK
Apples
You may need to look beyond the supermarket shelves to find them, but there's an exciting variety of apples available - sharp apples, sweet apples, crunchy apples, softer-fleshed apples, red apples, golden yellow apples, green apples and everything in between. Many are perfect for enjoying on their own as a delicious, healthy, energy-boosting snack. And when used as an ingredient they can be transformed into some of THE great desserts (see recommended recipes), combining magically with flavours such as caramel, cinnamon or blackberries.
