The temperature is dropping as days go by and we're starting to feel that nip in the air. But as cooler temperatures approach, this makes it the perfect time to think of those long lazy hours you could spend at the end of the day wrapped up and sipping on a nice warm bowl of soup. This week we thought we'd inspire you with a list of veggies that are in season and can be turned into a delicious little bowl of warm, heart goodness!

🥗 Beetroot
🥗 Buttnernut Squash
🥗 Carrots
🥗 Garlic
🥗 Kale
🥗 Kumquats
🥗 Pumpkin
🥗 Radish
🥗 Swiss Chard
🥗 Sweet Potatoes
🥗 Turnips

Combine any of these or cook just one of them with our delicious plant-based spreads to make a creamy soup and voila, you have the perfect comfort food to relax with!

This week’s fresh off the farm ingredient is responsibly sourced #garlic! #DYK, Garlic cloves are planted during the fall and need at least 8-9 months to grow before they’re harvested in Summer? That’s something we learnt this week while spending time on a local farm in Ontario, and picked up some of the freshest garlic! As seen in the pic above, Chef Omri, the man behind #FreshMedGourmet spreads even got hands-on with the garlic planting process.

Just the scent of freshly picked garlic made us drool thinking of the number of possible dishes we could cook, so this week’s recipe incorporates one of our main ingredients in FreshMed Gourmet Spreads - raw garlic. We decided to go with an easy Garlic and #parsley #mushrooms recipe!

This week we had the pleasure of picking our ingredients straight from a local organic Farm
in Ontario. At FreshMed Gourmet, we believe that freshness is quality. The feeling of cooking and eating something that you picked yourself adds another dimension to the flavours of the dish.

With the #thanksgiving #weekend just around the co

With the #thanksgiving #weekend just around the corner we know it can get a little overwhelming thinking up that menu, the shopping list and the thought of guests dropping by can drive a cook a little over the edge. So, here are some tips and tricks to keep your sanity this season in and out of the kitchen!

🥗 Keep your menu simple: You do not need to go overboard to impress anyone. Your guests appreciate the effort and the thought that went into the meal and they're just looking forward to simple, delicious home cooked food and quality time with you. Stick to thanksgiving basics that are familiar - A #vegan roast, #pumpkinpie and maybe a #rhubarb and ice cream or seasonal stewed fruit and fresh cream or #icecream.

🥗 Check your pantry: Before you do anything else, like making your grocery list, go through your pantry. You probably already have some of the igredients you need for that vegan pie or anything else you might have on your #menu.

🥗 Finalize your grocery list in advance: You definitely do not want to spend the thanksgiving weekend going in and out of the grocery store a million times and lose out on that #family time! Finalize that shopping list now!

🥗 Consider ordering groceries online: Why beat your head over the long grocery list and hunting for each little item in a thousand different market aisles, and that long wait in line at the payment counter? Why not just save yourself the stress and just order everything you need online? You save time and energy, and you'll also be physical distancing too.

🥗 Avoid shopping during peak hours: If online #groceryshopping isn't your thing, consider going to the grocery store before or after peak hours to avoid the crowds and stay safe during this time.

🥗 Look for opportunities to save: You do not have to buy your #ingredients at full price. There are definitely going to be money saving options available. Look around your local store, price compare and try price-matching to save those pennies.

🥗 Enjoy yourself: Now that you have everything set, don't forget to relax and enjoy the #holiday!

This #weekend, sit back, relax and take a bite out

This week, we feature an ingredient that is known

This week, we feature an ingredient that is known the world over as the 'King of vegetables.' Yes we mean, the rich, royal purple #eggplant! Eggplants are low calory vegetables that are packed full of pack vitamins and minerals. They can be cooked in a variety of ways from baking, grilling to frying or even mashed. They make a delicious addition to any #vegan or #vegetarian meal.

For first-time eggplant-buyers there's always that one confusing question - Should I peel the eggplant before I cook it? The answer to that is, no you do not need to do that. The skin is rich in nutrients and is edible. But then again, how you prep your eggplant depends on the recipe you are about to cook. There honestly is no wrong way to cook an eggplant and it's definitely difficult to overcook an eggplant. Whether you choose to salt it, bake it, broil it, fry it or mash it, this is one tough veggie. That being said, the trick is to avoid undercooking it.

Keep watching this space this week for a special Eggplant-based recipe featuring our very own #freshmedgourmet Blue Nile Eggplant!

It's fall! and that means it's #squash season! So

It's fall! and that means it's #squash season! So for all the first-time squash shoppers out there, here's how to pick and buy the best squash you can get your hand on.

🥣 Pick a squash that feels heavy for its size
🥣 Check the stem. It should be dry, firm and free of blemishes
🥣 All squashes have their own characteristic colour. A general rule here is to choose a squash that has a deep colour. Some might have a bit of a white spot where it rested on the ground while growing, and that's fine unless it appears to be green.
🥣 Squash should in general have a matte texture to its skin. If it appears shiny, that indicates it was picked too early.
🥣 As with any fresh produce, avoid picking Squash if it has any kind of nicks, cuts, bruises or blemishes on it.

It’s that time of year when the colours are starting to change, days are warm and the nights are getting cooler. We’re certainly not complaining about the change in the weather these days because we are totally excited for just one reason - It’s jam, jelly and tart season!

The fruit aisles are overflowing with seasonal fruit, especially apples, raspberries, and pears. So here’s a little tip to pick the freshest seasonal fruit for your delectable goodies -

🍎 Look for fruit that has that fresh, just off the tree quality to it

🍎 Check the skin of the fruit, it should look healthy and naturally lustrous with no blemishes

🍎 When picking berries at the grocery store, ensure that they are firm, plump, and uniformly coloured. Avoid berries that are bruised

When cooking for the first time, one of the most difficult things most of us face is the vegetable aisle; how to buy a vegetable? So this week here are a few tips on how to select #onions at the grocery store!

• Feel the neck of the onion. It should feel firm, dry, and tight
• The skin should appear shiny and as thin as tissue
• If the onions appear wet or slimy, do not pick it bruises or discoloration to moderate stages of decay
• Avoid picking onions that have green sprouts, cuts, bruises or discolouration
• If the onions appears wet or slimy, do not pick it

Happy grocery shopping!
