What is your favorite spring food? Spring being a fairly loose term...
this is why I said loosely spring. Lamb & ham are just easter dinner type foods that we always had. asparagus, artichokes & rhubarb are all in season for us right now. cherries and strawberries are kind of a late spring thing here. And mache is like salad greens, very tender. easter eggs, when else do you dye them? I suppose it really depends where you are and your climate.amber said:Most of these things are not spring items here. So I voted for asparagus and rhubarb. Cherries and strawberries are more of a summer fruit here, typically in June. Is there a season for lamb, ham, and what the heck is mache? I dont know the season for artichokes either, but it's not a common veggie here. As for easter eggs, they come in chocolate or we dye them
BreezyCooking said:I voted "Other", since my favorite spring foods are the first fresh local outdoor produce of the season - Ramps & Fiddleheads. Ramps should be showing up at the local organic market in the next week or so, with Fiddleheads following a few weeks thereafter.
