[quote=Anonymous]I've been thinking about how foods are so much less seasonal than they were for earlier generations given how advanced food transport is and how ubiquitous freezing is. It still feels so nice to eat seasonally though, and at this time of year I think of certain things. What do you think of having in May and June? And how did you have it? For me it is: Asparagus. Fresh steamed or broiled with lemon. Cream of asparagus soup. Strawberries. We had these in the garden, and when we had a lot of them my mother would make a pavlova with macerated strawberries. Artichokes. We only had these once or twice, in the spring, because they were expensive. They would be steamed and we'd peel the petals off one by one and eat them by dipping in melted butter with lemon juice, scraping the meat off with our teeth. [/quote]
