Seasonal Cookery

Plan ahead when in the kitchen and use what nature provides for you. Using seasonal vegetables guarantees dishes with great flavors every time you cook. Use this guide to match recipes with the best each season has to offer.
 
spring Prepare light entrees and salads that emphasize spring vegetables like asparagus, leeks, and green onions. Also use fresh herbs, such as basil and cilantro.
 
summer Use your grill to prepare seafood, poultry, or meats and serve with the season's ample bell peppers, eggplants, cucumbers, green beans, greens like arugula and spinach, snow peas, tomatoes, and zucchini.
 
autumn During this time of the year include the best of the harvest in your menus with mushrooms, onions, potatoes, pumpkins, and sweet potatoes.
 
winter Use your broiler to prepare hearty recipes using winter's supply, including hearty greens, winter squash, and root vegetables. Incorporate the flavors of winter by using fresh herbs like sage and rosemary.
