Welcome to our comprehensive British Seasonality Chart, designed exclusively for chefs and restaurateurs seeking the freshest UK ingredients year-round. At Oliver Kay, we understand the pivotal role seasonality plays in creating unforgettable culinary experiences. Whether you’re crafting a menu for a bustling bistro, fine-dining restaurant, premium hotel or cosy care home, our seasonal chart simplifies the process of selecting prime British produce with the proteins to pair.
From the vibrant greens of spring asparagus to the robust flavours of autumn squashes, each season brings a bounty of ingredients that have the ability to elevate your dishes. Our chart not only highlights peak produce like crisp apples and tender root vegetables but also integrates seasonal proteins such as succulent lamb and delicate crustaceans. This synergy allows you to harmonise flavours and textures effortlessly, ensuring every plate is a masterpiece of freshness.
Navigating the complexities of seasonal availability can be daunting, but with our intuitive chart, you can plan menus with confidence. Whether you’re planning a hearty winter stew or a light summer salad, our curated selection of seasonal ingredients guarantees superior quality and flavour consistency. We are committed to supporting local farmers and fishermen, bringing you the finest ingredients straight from the heart of British agriculture and fisheries as much as possible.
You can keep up to date with the latest industry news and shipping/supply issues, as well as the market situation and physical conditions of fresh produce by reading our quarterly market reports and weekly produce updates.
