Corn Smut

Some of our sweetcorn has Corn Smut (fungus), also known as corn truffles. It won't win many prizes for looks but has a lovely mushroomy sweetcorn flavour and is apparently quite sought after in some countries. Once cooked this lot topped toasted open cheese and tomato sandwiches.

Radicchio Palla Rossa

Radicchio. Brushed the hearts with olive oil before cooking on a griddle, the main dish is a gratin of onion, potato, celeriac, beetroot and courgette with cheddar, brie and wholemeal breadcrumbs.
