| Body | Anyone know the best place to source veg?
I have 4 households I often cook for (and 25 people total), so willing to buy bulk(sh) and freeze if needed (or see if people want to chip in).
I usually use Aldi/Lidl but a lot of their produce goes off quickly despite my best efforts, and could be doing without the plastic.
I had a search here a while ago, someone said Blochairn Market. I went down on a Sunday and it was 90% car-boot with 2 or 3 stalls with no great selection (think a big box of mushrooms was the only value/unusual thing there)
I found this;
https://glasgowfruitmarket.co.uk/
Which looks okay, not sure if it's the same thing as Blochairn or just the same name. But no big bulk discounts. Peppers are coming into seasons so I plan to roast trays of them and blend/freeze them as a quick ready-made pasta-sauce.
I see *loads* of fresh fruit and veg boxes have entered the market, but comparing them is hard work and most seem over-priced.
Ideally, I'd like to be able to get a big box of seasonal veg every week or two (delivery or collection)...for a price cheaper than going to Lidl and buying each veg individually. |
