Sorry, Pauljoseph, I did not see your reference to Kerala. I understand the climate there is quite different from most of the US, certainly from the NorthEast.
Pauljoseph, I have always wanted to visit Kerala, India. People who have been there tell me it is as close to Paradise as one can get. Seeing all your photos and your recipes is a gift to us in the North. Thank you for reminding us of the bounties of Asia. I learn so much from your posts!
@Pauljoseph... you must live in Southern California. But for the most of the US, vegetables have seasons. ;) I remember the winter I lived in San Diego. Best feature besides being able to play golf whenever I wanted to was the great tomatoes and avocadoes in the middle of winter.
@ aargersi - if it weren't for the fact you live in Texas I'd be completely jealous of you ;) !! I won't be seeing my garden eggplants or tomatoes ripen August or so!
ChefJune yes all locally grown never find any imported vegetable in our farmers market example this link here all from within the 100- to 200-mile range vegetables https://picasaweb.google.com/paulvj000/KeralaVegetable?locked=true#
That does NOT mean it is a "Spring vegetable." Many veggies are now in the market 365 days a year. They are sourced from all over the world. However, each of them really does have a season. Most Americans have no clue what those are any more, though.
I think it depends on the climate you live in. Since the Food52 offices are in the North East of the United States, I suspect their intent is for vegetables that would be in season there currently.
