Seasonal Eating
As the year shifts from season to season, you’ll usually also notice a change in what’s on the menu. Chefs know that eating seasonally is the only way to capture flavors at their best, so they closely stick to foods that are in season, and you’ll notice so do the trends. In the Fall and Winter, look for lots of root vegetables, squash, hearty local meats, and wild game. Spring and Summer, in contrast, feature light, bright meals, colorful fruits and vegetables, and a wonderful array of seafood.
While looking at the seasons is a great rule of thumb, society also plays a huge role in predicting food trends. Covid, quarantine, and life after lockdown has greatly impacted every element of our lives, even what we choose to cook and eat. So stay on top of the trends by taking a look at our blog.
