Eating Seasonally: A Delight for the Palate and for Health
Choosing seasonal fruits and vegetables means bringing authentic flavors, valuable nutrients, and respect for the environment to the table. But once you return from the market, how can you best preserve all that goodness?
Spring: Strawberries, Asparagus, and Peas
Spring brings fragrant strawberries, crunchy asparagus, and sweet peas. To keep them fresh longer, it's best to store them in hermetic glass containers in the refrigerator: they maintain the right humidity without altering the flavors.
Summer: Tomatoes, Peaches, and Eggplants
Summer is the most generous season. Tomatoes, peaches, eggplants, zucchinis, and melons fill our kitchens with colors and aromas. The Pull Box Glass containers are perfect for storing pre-cut vegetables or fruit salads, thanks to the hermetic closure that preserves freshness and flavors.
Autumn: Grapes, Pumpkin, and Mushrooms
With autumn come the most intense flavors: grapes, pumpkin, porcini mushrooms, chestnuts, and pomegranates. The Guzzini Vanity bowls are ideal for serving seasonal appetizers or for preparing colorful and scenic table settings.
Winter: Citrus Fruits, Cabbages, and Radicchio
Winter gifts us with citrus fruits rich in vitamin C, cabbages, broccoli, and radicchio. Store them in hermetic containers to keep their nutritional properties intact and reduce food waste.
