What’s Fresh for Delivery to Restaurants in DFW?
In the month of May we had the return of the annual Met Gala- where A-list celebs donate $300,000 for a table to not eat anything for fear of busting out of their over the top and too-high-fashion-for-regular-folk-to-understand costumes. That about covers it, right?
The Met Gala is a chance for fashion lovers to find out what’s in season in terms of clothing trends. In other words, what’s fresh for fashion?
But what if fashion isn’t your thing? What if you’re more into food? Instead of asking what people are wearing at the Met Gala, maybe you should be asking what they’re eating! If food is your passion, the question on your mind might be:
What’s fresh for delivery to DFW restaurants?
Now is the perfect time to make use of both spring and emerging summer fruits and veggies. Whether you’re planning a menu for a restaurant, curating content for your food blog, designing meals for a catering event, or just plain putting dinner on your own kitchen table, here is the best in-season produce to add to your menu:
Seasonal Vegetables for June
Rhubarb- So you know rhubarb can go into a pie, but what else can you do with this versatile veggie? Rhubarb is pretty tart by nature, but that means it can be added to everything from baked goods to soups. Rhubarb can also be used as a jam or sauce for meats.
Peas- Side dish? Not this little guy! Make peas into a main course by turning them into a soup or puree. Peas are high in fiber, low in fat, and are a nice source of protein.
Asparagus- Get it while you can! Asparagus has a short season, so when you see it from local sources, snap it up! Speaking of snapping, do know the best way to trim the tender asparagus from the woody stem? Snap off the end with your hands, and the asparagus will naturally separate from its less tasty end.
Seasonal Fruits for June
Strawberries-While you can find strawberries year-round, the best time to indulge in these sweet treats is when they’re in season from a local source. Here in North Texas there are several places you can pick your own produce. These berries only store for a few days, though, so eat them fast!
Apricots- Why are the apricots you get at the store so tart? Because this is one stone fruit that cannot convert the starches into sugar over time. That means they sweetest your fruit will get is picked straight from a tree. The best fresh apricots will smell heavenly, so use your sniffer before you remove from the tree.
Lemons and Limes- These are fruits you can enjoy year-round because these trees bloom year round. Citrus is so versatile because it can be used in savory or sweet items, as marinade or an infuser of flavor. You can even freeze lemons and limes to save for later.
