HINTS & TIPS

There is a lot of media about the mercury levels of fish like marlin. Much like anything else in your diet it’s all about balance. We suggest that if you eat marlin, once a fortnight is the limit you should keep your consumption to.
Flat beans can be found at their best in winter, cook them in the same way as you would normal round or French beans.
