Last day of the month, so before that ends I'll harvest another post... As clichéd as it sounds, the colours of the autumn gatherings seem to reflect the sunny, golden days that we've been experiencing here. Be they gnarled, lumpen and twisted, or smooth and taut-skinned, I love all these strange fruits.
Just looking at these mushrooms makes me hungry, simply thinking of the dishes that they could result in, although probably not through any of my limited culinary skills!
These specimens all have their own unique texture as you eat them, not to mention the taste...
In fact the cèpe mushrooms above look as if they have already been nibbled...
Both artichaut and garlic seem to have aesthetic qualities in their own right, alongside their edible ones and are often strung up as decoration...
Whilst other autumn fruits are stored away for the months to come....
Some things, however, can only be consumed fresh, such as the beautifully patterned wrasse below... I love the fine pair of lips on this specimen.
Roll on October...
