September 28 In Season at the SA Produce Market
There’s plenty of fresh South Australian produce moving through the SA Produce Market this week, with great local supply across a range of fruit, vegetables and herbs.
Here are four of our picks to look out for at your local independent fruit and veg store this week.
Goodness Me Sweet Cherry Tomatoes
South Australia provides ideal growing conditions for producing plump, vibrant tomatoes packed with natural flavour. Cherry tomatoes are a classic all round favourite, vine ripened to develop their delicious colour, flavour and natural juiciness. Perfect for snacking, tossing through salads or adding to roasts, these versatile little tomatoes bring a burst of freshness and flavour to any dish. Harvested at the right time, South Australian cherry tomatoes are a fresh and delicious choice for your next meal.
Rhubarb
Looking to add a delicious touch of tartness to your next bake? Rhubarb brings a vibrant pink-red colour and distinctive tangy flavour that pairs beautifully with sweet and savoury dishes. Whether you are revisiting a favourite rhubarb recipe or looking to try something new in the kitchen, now is the perfect time to give this versatile ingredient a go. Why not try something different this week with these delicious Almond and Rhubarb Muffins? With a delicious combination of sweet, nutty and tangy flavours, they are the perfect treat to enjoy any time of day. Recipe: https://www.abetterchoice.com.au/recipes/almond-and-rhubarb-muffins/
Sneaky’s Pasta Sauce
There’s something a little different on the trading floor this week, with a growing range of grocery lines now available through the SA Produce Market. Among the products spotted this week was Sneaky’s Pasta Sauce – a South Australian-made range from Sneaky’s Restaurant at Angle Vale. While fresh produce will always be at the heart of the Market, it’s great to see locally made products complementing the fresh fruit and vegetables traded here each day and providing our buyers with an even broader range under one roof.
Mushrooms
If you are a mushroom lover, you will be pleased to know that these versatile favourites are available all year round. South Australian mushrooms are tasting fantastic right now, with a variety of types to choose from for all your favourite dishes. As the weather warms up, why not try something fresh and delicious, such as a Mushroom and Zoodle Salad? It makes a light and flavourful lunch option that is perfect for the warmer months.
