our chums in the market have a mix of their smallholding grown
top quality, seasonal and often rare breeds varieties + good stuff from a few other localish growers + things from the international wholesale market which are usually better quality than most
imho some things have such a short season and short shelf life that frozen or otherwise preserved is better than overpriced poor quality out of season things
enjoy fresh in season, preserved or anticipation is better than low quality OOS
for instance, i do not bother making chips unless i have top quality, appropriate variety, preferably large and dirty, spuds
that makes for several shortish chip seasons throughout the year as different types are available by season
perfect as chips are usually not a disappointment, unlike OOS wrong spud chips which some will accept so long as there are some sort of chips available
re fresh vs preserved, frozen chips are just wrong, the wrong potato is pointless, best to go seasonal and right even if that limits chip availability windows |
