🚫 Don't waste vegetable scraps! Repurpose them to create a flavorful vegetable stock, reducing food waste and enhancing your dishes. 🍜Making stock from scraps is a sustainable practice that adds depth to recipes and helps minimize landfill waste. 🥕🧅Collect vegetable peelings, ends, and trimmings in the freezer, then simmer with herbs and seasonings to extract flavors. Use the stock as a base for soups, stews, sauces, and risottos. By repurposing scraps, you reduce waste and elevate your cooking. Embrace the #CookingTipThursday spirit and make the most of every ingredient in your kitchen. #winchesterva #winchestercoopmarket #sustainableliving #ZeroWaste

Introducing the 𝑆𝑢𝑠𝑡𝑎𝑖𝑛𝑎𝑏𝑜𝑤𝑙 – our most planted-friendly dish yet. Made with seasonal produce that would otherwise be discarded, the Sustainabowl embodies our partnership with Waste Knot, pioneers in rescuing surplus vegetables from an unresponsive food industry. Why is this important? Each year, vast amounts of perfectly good food never reach our plates, often due to overproduction and stringent cosmetic standards. By choosing dishes like the Sustainabowl, not only are you treating your team to vibrant, nutritious meals like our Waste Knot Vegetable Bhaji with Sag Aloo, Herb Labne & Tomato Salsa (pictured here) or the Waste Knot Spelt Pasta Salad with Spring Pea Pesto & Asparagus, but you're also taking a stand against food waste. This initiative is just one of the many ways we strive to improve our food systems. #Sustainabowl #SustainabilityInAction #ZeroWaste #InnovativeDining

At PSF Vegetables, we know that proper storage is the key to enjoying fresh produce longer. Whether you're a chef, a grocery buyer, or simply someone who loves fresh veggies, here's how to extend the life of your tomatoes and peppers: Tomatoes Store unripe tomatoes stem-side down at room temperature for even ripening. Ripe tomatoes should be kept on the counter but consumed within a few days. Avoid the fridge! Cold temperatures ruin their texture and flavor. Peppers Keep them dry and store in a breathable bag in the fridge's crisper drawer. Use within 1-2 weeks for the best taste and crunch. For longer storage, slice and freeze for easy use later. 💡 Pro Tip: Check your produce regularly. Removing spoiled veggies prevents others from going bad too quickly. Sustainability starts with small actions—let's waste less and enjoy more! 🌱 Why are YOU yet to follow and engage with us?
