The article highlights the author's preferred winter recipes, emphasizing warmth and comfort during colder months when supplies are low. Notable dishes include a quick midweek roast with chicken thighs and bread sauce, a hollow pasta with greens, and a risotto-style pearl barley dish featuring mushrooms. The author appreciates the role of dried ingredients and fresh greens, suggesting that winter cooking focuses on nourishing meals that bring people together around the table, making mealtime special even with simple recipes.
A simple midweek roast has become something of a winter staple in this house. Not the full bells and whistles Sunday lunch but something I can do in less than an hour on a Wednesday evening.
The jars of dried ingredients in the cupboard have an important role to play right now. One recipe that I have repeated all winter has been a risotto-style dish of pearl barley and mushrooms.
