The main types of vegetables to enjoy in Scotland during the autumn are a spectacular range of hearty root vegetables. Including pumpkins, parsnips and turnips, this amazing splendour can be enjoyed as a vegetable bake or simply whizzed up into a warming soup.
For a soup with a little added twist, we simply love crumbling in some Highland Fine Cheese Strathdon Blue to create a wonderful creamy texture.
Leafy greens also make an appearance this type of year, with iron rich kale being readily available, a healthy addition to a roast dinner or a few slices of smoked venison.
Fish & Seafood

Rich meaty fish and seafood makes a great addition to any dinner table this year with Lobster and Razor Clams being a firm favourite around Scotland's coastline. Why not try these in a hearty fish stew served with Duncan's of Deeside Family Recipe Oatcakes for a real depth of flavour.
Meat & Game
