Limited Edition Crab Apple & Chilli Jelly

Our Crab Apple & Chillie Jelly was quite a hit at yesterday's Stirling NeighbourFood's taster event. As well as connecting with our customers and finding new ones it's great to meet fellow producers. It was so good to meet Clement from Langoustine the box and taste his delicious langoustines with our Crab Apple & Chillie Jelly. We will certainly be trying that combination again in the new year. #localfood

Fresh Chilli Season Draws to a Close.

It's been a bountiful chilli growing season here at Foragers (our best yet). We have one more week of Fresh Palivec Chillies available at Stirling NeighbourFood, Milngavie Food Hub and Linlithgow Neighbourfood. We only have a few kilos left so get your orders in soon. We have a great "end-of-season" deal if you want to freeze some for Christmas.

Hang those Chillies

As well as freezing chillies for the winter why not try hanging them out to dry in your kitchen. They make a lovely decoration too! Here's a guide on how to make a CHILLI RISTRA.  #chillies #foodpreservation

Red chillies beat indigestion and ulcers

This interesting article from the Daily Record was passed on to us by a familiy member.  Another great reason to buy Foragers Chillies.  We've found that many people equate chillies with "painful" heat in the mouth.  THERE ARE MILDER VARIERIES AVAILABLE!  At Foragers our main chilli is Palivec which is mild - medium.  We like our chillies to enhance your culinary creations not overpower them.
