WELCOME TO MAY
Two bank holidays, summer not far away, birds nesting… May is the month of opportunity (the clue is in the name) when you can – you must head outside into the countryside on bright, fresh days to walk, breathe and snatch a moment of secret calm. In the kitchen, the enticement is just as strong: spring veg is at its best, there are new potatoes in all their soft, buttery glory, and tender spears of asparagus cry out for a smoky, salty overcoat and a dunk in runny, golden yolk. Start the day with joy…
