Embrace autumn and get cosy with some warming home cooking
There are plenty of unfavourable things to be said about
2020, but the good (largely – this is Manchester, after all!) weather has been
one shining light in an otherwise miserable few months.
But as we dust off our umbrellas, boots and winter coats,
it’s not all doom and gloom ahead: there’s a season of swapping warming
sunshine for warming food to look forward to! What better way to spend our
typically-Manchester soggy weekends than trying out some new recipes and
enjoying home comforts?
Exchange the ‘big light’ for beautiful candles and get that
toasty fire going, it’s time to cook up a feast of delicious local produce from
our Best of Local collection.
Here are some of our favourites from the cooking section of our website.
