veggie corner

Veggie Corner – frozen veg

by Olivia Bignold-Jordan

I am a firm believer that in vegetables, as in society, diversity is key. We could spend dozens of fruitless (but veggie-full) hours discussing whether the strengths of carrots – night vision – outweigh those of spinach – super strength – but the truth is that one type of vegetable is simply not enough. Sure, […]

Veggie Corner – green peas

by Comment

Every fresher house has its awkward first cuppa. We’ve all been there: the silence as the chink of teaspoon on china hangs in the air; the void stretching out between desperate stabs at small talk; the fidgeting, the broken eye contact. A week later and tea breaks are like something out of a different world. […]

Veggie Corner – cauliflower

by Comment

It’s tasteless. It’s pale. It’s versatile. I’ll admit, cauliflower is an odd choice of vegetable to represent but it deserves the spotlight for its work with cheese alone. Cauliflower cheese is an example of perfect food, and as a vegetarian it’s the highlight of a roast dinner (coming in just above yorkie puds). It is […]

Fruit Corner- kiwi

by Nicky Avasthi

My relationship with kiwi is a lot like with my ex-boyfriend – very on again off again. Some days I am absolutely in love with kiwi; the taste is so unique and quite refreshing, especially in combination with other fruits in a salad. But then other times I look at it and wonder what the […]

Fruit Corner – watermelon

by Deepa Lalwani

Summery and colourful, the watermelon is the emperor of fruits. The combination of its juicy reddish-pink interior and green rind is aesthetically pleasing and tasty, not to mention useful – who doesn’t love a fruit with a built-in grip to hold? The flavour is both refreshing and nostalgic, since the actual fruit itself is super […]

Veggie Corner- beetroot

by Daphne Bugler

Overlooked and underappreciated since they were given the awful sounding name ‘beta vulgaris’ in Latin, the humble beetroot is all too often forgotten. When you think of vegetables it doesn’t always spring to mind, but the immaculate purple root vegetable is one of the most versatile and delicious out there. Beets can not only be […]

Veggie Corner – Rocket

by Lauren Geall

When it comes to the humble salad, it’s not rare to hear a subtle sneer of derision. The truth is that as a society, we’ve condemned the salad as not only the choice of the bland but of the simple, the dull. And I’m not saying I’m an innocent bystander to this reaction. I too […]

Veggie Corner – Courgette

by James Angove

Mais oui, la courgette. A vegetable that takes itself seriously. In fact, so seriously that it insists on a French pronunciation. A cucumber with substance, the courgette’s gallic tones tell you straight away that this is a vegetable built for cooking. It can be fried, steamed, stuffed, baked and (for you weirdos out there) included […]
