Most food, from fruit to fish, has a season -a time when it is abundant and at its best. Knowledge about food's seasons was once essential to survival and became culturally ingrained over the centuries. Today, we have all but lost this accumulated wisdom.

Cook safely

Consider using a thermostatically controlled deep fat fryer.
Keep the oven door shut.
