Adelaide Central Market Autumn Recipes
The Adelaide Central Market has released a collection of autumn recipes to prepare at home.
Between the months of March and May, SA’s apple orchards start bearing fruit, which come in an assortment of autumn colours and varieties; including Sundowners, Red Delicious, Fuji and Pink Ladies. The tarter green Granny Smiths are the best for a tasty apple pie, as they hold their form better when cooked or stewed. Local pears are also in season, with Adelaide Hills Packham and Bosc among popular favourites for eating fresh or cooking in desserts like Caramelised Pear & Ginger Crumble.
Lesser known fruits such as Persimmon, Feijoa and Quinces are also in season around Autumn, and are great in desserts, jams, jellies or an accompaniment to your favourite cheese platter.
In Season during Autumn:
Apples
Brussel Sprouts
Celeriac
Feijoa
Figs
Pears
Persimmon
Pomegranate
Pumpkin
Shallot
Snow Peas
Sugar Snap Peas
Swede
Sweet Potato
Turnip
The Market also now offers a home delivery service within a 10km radius, with a range of stalls to purchase from. You can find out more about the Market’s online shopping site here.
