October seasonal foods
Eat British, seasonal produce: it will help to reduce carbon emissions, and support the local economy. Check out what autumnal October has to offer...

Make the most of... mackerel
October is the last month you can eat mackerel in season, so get your fill of this super fish.

Game academy
You’d be hard - pressed to find a leaner and more free-range meat than game, so visit your supermarket or butcher and try Tom Norrington - Davies’ flavoursome autumnal dishes.

Make the most of... watercress
Unceremoniously shoved to one side for a while by rocket and those fancy-Dan micro-greens, watercress is back in pole position.

Grilled fresh porcini mushrooms
Fresh porcini mushrooms are the kings of the forest floor. They have an unrivalled flavour.

Born to be wild
At this time of year, the earth’s floor has a bounty of delights, if you know where to look. If you don’t, visit a farmers’ market to see if you can get hold of porcini mushrooms and their wild cousins, says Tom Norrington - Davies.
