A merry market for a Saturday morning<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

London abounds in excellent farmers markets. I\u2019ve written before about the gastronomic glories of Borough Market or the tiny, expensive Pimlico Road market watched over by a statue of the boy Mozart. The one my mother uses is a street market that closes quaint little Bute Street in South Kensington every Saturday morning. It\u2019s already a food-conscious thoroughfare the rest of the week with a super fishmonger called Moxon\u2019s, a number of cafes and bakeries and some of London\u2019s best gelato at Oddino\u2019s. Saturday brings over a dozen stalls offering all sorts of delightful treats. So dangerous to venture in if one is hungry…<\/p>\n

English strawberries have a different flavour than our fragrant Ontario varieties. Sweet and juicy but less aromatic these are just the babies to mash up with cream and sugar or pop one at a time while enjoying the spectacle of England\u2019s batsmen punishing the Sri Lankan bowling.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Madame Gautier Traiteur is a company created by two French cooks offering an irresistible range of prepared dishes, some hot \u2013 whole pot-roasted chickens (so tender, so full of flavour) with a pungent herb stuffing bathing in simmering gravy, a massive chuck of beef in a sort of sauce chasseur \u2013 some cold \u2013 duck confit, Catalan meatballs of lamb and mint, boeuf bourgignon, etcetera.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Moxon\u2019s specializes in the harvest of the still-fecund seas around Great Britain: dressed crabs and oysters from Essex, brown shrimps from Morecambe Bay, North Sea herring and Dover sole, Cornish mackerel, smoked eel, Scottish salmon\u2026 <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Nut Knowle Farm is a goat milk dairy in East Sussex. Their smoked St. George cheese was recently voted Britain\u2019s best goat cheese; their more recent endeavour, Martlet Gold, is even better \u2013 a powerful cheese with a real lactic tang \u2013 and absolutely delicious with a glass of strong, dry cider.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
