We all have our favourite vegetables. For us it is broccoli and egg plant, liberally sprinkled with chilli. Chef and foodie favourite Ottolenghi swears by it. The trick is to blanch the broccoli before griddling it. All year round it’s a winner.

We think this new range of kitchen linen is a winner too. Not only because of the vegetables it features, but also because of Ruth Jackson’s stunning art work. We are delighted Ruth has forsaken the world of advertising and started turning her talents to tea towels and aprons. Our kitchens will all be the better for it.
