Yes, it’s dark, it’s bleak, it’s full on comfort food season. But that doesn’t mean that every meal has to compensate for the UK weather. With the produce available to us there’s still so much room for fresh flavours, like this crispy pork schnitzel with a light and zingy apple, cabbage and carrot slaw, enhanced with The Slow Vinegar Company Apple & Blackberry Wine Vinegar.

Hope you enjoy experimenting with all these amazing homegrown ingredients!
