Sicilian blood oranges are only here for a few weeks. Easy to peel as thick skinned, delicious in smoothies, cakes and on steel cut oats with a dollop of Kefir - we love the dairy products from The Collective. Higher in acidity and more aromatic than other oranges they are a fantastic match for salty blue or yew’s cheeses, bitter leaves and fatty protein like duck.

Most of us chefs here know a lot about nutrition, eat food cooked from scratch and extol the virtues of home made food. We shun processed food. We took part and were riveted!
