* Seasonal fish as recommended by the Marine Conservation Society, who publish numerous guides at modest prices. They also host a very informative guide to fish that you find in shops and what to look for - Fish Online.
My list is by no means exhaustive but I hope it gives you some idea of the treasure trove of tastes awaiting us. I highly recommend a trip to any of our local farm shops. I can’t resist them and find shopping in them a joy.
As an example of what this seasonal produce can offer, I stuck a pin in the list and luckily for me I hit “sea bream” (a favourite).
