Bramble & Beetroot Soba with Green Chilli & Toasted Seeds

‘If it grows together, it goes together’ A mantra of seasonal eating instilled into me by my dear Head Chef Freddy Forster years ago. It couldn’t be truer, food in season generally pairs: Tomatoes & Peaches, Pumpkins & Sage and of course Bramble & Beetroot.

As the summer comes to an end we are in that gap where we crave something a little more substantial than a salad but still deliciously light, this broth has it in abundance, simple to create, even simpler if you use Borough Broth Pho stock…

Bridging the gap between summer and autumn, this makes the most of berries swollen by the late summer sun and beet, tender from the nutrient rich soil, one to lead us into the hunger gap in style…
