Organic Sandy Carrot
$129 by kgFrench sandy carrots also known as ‘Carotte de Sables’ are the very special vegetable found growing all along the beautiful coast of La Manche in a tiny coastal area in Normandy. Here, where Sand isn’t just for sandcastles, they use this favourite seaside town to grow a very special carrot.
Known in France as ‘carotte de sables’ or ‘sand carrots’, they are sweet, crunchy and slightly tender and grown using seaweed as their primary fertilizer. The sandy soil gives the carrots perfect drainage, they have little or no core and this results in excellent flavour. They are appreciated by the French as well as us as the very best variety of carrot and are sold with their light sand coating as proof of origin. They are more expensive than regular carrots, but that is expected once you have tasted them.

Organic Patidou Squash – 1 kg
$125The pattypan squash is also known as scallop squash, sunburst squash, granny squash, custard marrow, custard squash, cibleme in Cajun French, white squash, scallopini or simply “squash” in Australian English. Patty pan squash comes in yellow, green, and white varieties. Patty pan or scallop squash is a tender summer squash, like zucchini or yellow squash. The squash is most tender when relatively immature; it is generally served when it is no more than two to three inches in diameter.
Pattypan is a good source of magnesium, niacin, and vitamins A and C. One cup contains approximately 20 to 30 calories and no fat. It is often sliced, coated and fried until golden brown, or simply boiled. In Polish cuisine, they are pickled in sweet vinegar.
Origin: France
Packaging: None
Storage: The hard skin protects the flesh and allows it to store longer than summer squash. Store Patidou Squash in a cool, preferably dark, well-ventilated area for up to 3 weeks. Wrap cut pieces in plastic and refrigerate up to five days.
Usage: The patidou turned out to be delicious roasted and mashed with some butter and spices including nutmeg and Caribbean colombo powder, which is a kind of curry powder. The flesh has a distinct flavor of chestnuts and isn’t as sweet as some other squashes. Squash can be enjoyed in many ways- usually preparation involves extensive baking to soften the squash and then you can do whatever you please once the flesh is tender.
