And this week's British food of the week is... sweetcorn. Yes, congratulations are due to the humble cob, as this is the best week of the year to eat the yellow veg. That's according to the rather brilliant Eat the Seasons website, which is as literal as it sounds. I could fill a minor dissertation with the virtues of this site but instead I will just say this: it's UK-focussed, features a different food each week, packs in history, nutrional info and cooking tips and is written with authority, flair and simplicity. In short, it's all good. One last note on sweetcorn - this is also the perfect week of the year to get lost in a maize maze.
