Does anybody know where I can buy a Pumpkin in London? |
It needs to be the Halloween orange type, not sure exactly what variety this is but the kind a british person would imagine if they think 'Pumpkin'. There are lots of ethnic shops selling the other varieties but I can't find anywhere selling this type. A BIT early for them, Try Smithfield Market Battersea, if not Harrods can probably help you. Good hunting! You should try Borough Market near London Bridge BR stn, i'm always popping there for bits and pieces that are sometimes hard to get in your regular Tescos, Sainsburys etc My local greengrocer (SW London) gets them in at the end of September/beginning of October. The Jack o' Lantern type pumpkins aren't ripe yet - they are quite a slow-growing fruit. If you need orange pumpkin flesh to cook with, Waitrose sells canned pumpkin under the 'Libby's' brand all year round. Ask at a market stall? They might be able to get one next time they go to the wholesalers. try T-H -O-P in westminster. Go to New Covent Garden Market early in the morning by early I mean 3-4am. You will be able to buy any exotic fruit or vegetables you want. pumpkins are seasonal. They aren't picked until fall when they are ripe and ready. The only pumpkin you will be able to find now is in a can. Halloween pumpkins will not be easily available for a couple of months. Do try the other types. Butternut squash is really tasty, try it! |
