Seasonal British Produce

November

November seasonal British produce is all about meat, earthy root vegetables and plenty of greens. There’s still loads of variety and it’s a great month to explore England’s red wines for food pairings.

What British Produce is in Season in November?

It may officially still be autumn, but it definitely feels like there’s a change in the air and the November seasonal British produce on the shelves feels much more wintry. There are plenty of greens, root vegetables and lots of meat. Alongside chicken, beef and pork which you can get all year round, November is right in the middle of game season. Wild duck is an excellent source of iron and if eaten without the crispy skin (we know that’s the tastiest bit) it’s actually a very lean meat and lower in calories than a skinless chicken breast.  It’s also a great food pairing for the English red wines that are starting to emerge on the scene.  November seasonal British produce doesn’t have much choice in the way of fruit – it’s all about apples.  Luckily there are lots of varieties and they are very versatile so can be used in sweet or savoury dishes.

What English Wines Go With November Seasonal Produce?

Pinot Noir:

The earthy, forest floor notes of English Pinot Noir make a great companion for November seasonal dishes.

  • meat dishes, especially duck and pheasant with a plum sauce
  • Mushroom-rich dishes with or without meat
  • Roasted autumn vegetables. Dishes with fermented garlic

Chardonnay:

Whatever your preferred style, crisp and fresh or rich and oaky, November is great month for pairing English seasonal food with English Chardonnay.

  • Creamy mushroom dishes
  • Flatbreads with sweet roasted onions and melted brie
  • Jersualem artichoke soup

English Sparkling Wine:

You’ll know all about food and wine soul mates Champagne and oysters and for sure English Sparkling Wine and English oysters, which are in season from September to around March, are a great combo.
