Make the most of April’s bounty with these 3 scrumptious seasonal recipes
April is full of surprises. It’s a month where the weather
can’t seem to make up its mind – sunny one minute, rainy the next. But amidst
all the unpredictability, there’s one thing you can count on… the arrival of
delicious, fresh seasonal produce! As you know, we’re all about making the most
of local produce here at Creamline – not only because it’s when food is at its
freshest and tastiest, but because it supports local farmers and helps to lower
food miles. To celebrate the lovely produce that April welcomes in, we’ve
compiled our top pick recipes from across the internet that you can try in the
kitchen. Explore our Best
of Local range to discover the delicious seasonal produce which we can
bring to your doorstep.
Ham, egg, and asparagus tart
This delicious recipe
from Olive Magazine makes the perfect brunch dish or light midweek meal to
enjoy with the family. A surprisingly simple dish to make, the tart combines
the flavours of succulent ham with slightly sweet asparagus spears atop a
buttery puff pastry crust. You can elevate the tart by using our sliced ham,
expertly prepared and cooked by Little Pigs Didsbury.
Oven-baked salmon with charred onions and radishes
Say “hello” to spring on a plate! This delicious EatingWell
recipe combines succulent salmon fillets with charred onions and crunch radishes for a dish
that’s as good for you as it is delicious. With the salmon’s high protein and
omega-3 fatty acid content and plenty of vitamins from the fresh veg, you can
make this your go-to healthy recipe this April. Our Scottish
salmon fillets have been exclusively sourced by our local fishmonger and
are delivered at their freshest.
Lemon drizzle cake
Easter might be over, but we always have the appetite for a
lemon drizzle cake… There’s nothing quite like the sweet scent of lemon to get us
feeling springy on a sunny, airy afternoon! Lemon drizzle cake is a true
delight and this BBC GoodFood
recipe helps you to bake up only the moistest, zestiest crumb and a tangy
glaze. And we couldn’t agree with BBC GoodFood’s suggestion of making two at once,
since the classic lemon drizzle is simply so moreish!
While this recipe is easy to make, if you fancy trying a
lemon drizzle cake made by the pro bakers, we have a delicious one available
from Thatcher’s, a family-run bakery based in Stockport. Add it to your next
Best of Local order here!
