f is for farmers market When we did our decidedly inspired D day yesterday, we hadn't yet seen Nigel Slater's occasional series on the ABCs of food. He's in the middle of the alphabet, now, and is hitting the highlights between "F" and "L." Here's a rundown:

F is for the Fairtrade mark and fish, especially fresh sustainable and (yes) Fairtrade fish.
F is for farmer's markets.
G is for game and grilling - Nigel suggests a stew of pigeon and rabbit with bacon, rough red wine and button mushrooms.
I is for Internet shopping and Italy - "our second gastronomic home."
J is for Japanese food. Nigel gives us a "recipe" for salted edamame beans.
K is for kitchen; Nigel celebrates the movement to break down walls between kitchen and dining room.
L is for lime, "the flavor of the moment," "most fashionable fruit next to the pomegranate," showing up in everything from "grilled garlic-infused scallops to ginger-spiked chicken soup" to lime zest in chocolates.
