Darina Allen: What's in season this time of year?

Root vegetables will be even better in a few weeks’ time, says Darina Allen.

“It’s almost winter now — what’s in season at this time of the year?”

This question came from a busy young mum who was panicking and at a loss to know what to cook for her family now that the summer produce is finished — she was amazed when I rattled off all the root vegetables that are at their best at present, says Darina Allen.
