Best buy

Fortunately ruby grapefruit is cheap. Eat fresh, use in salads, or add to Campari and sparkling wine for spring cocktails.

Going

Jerusalem artichokes will be crisp and fresh and widely available only until the end of the month.

Gone

If you didn’t freeze juice when lemons and limes were cheap you’ll be paying for it, or looking elsewhere for sharpness in dressings and drinks.

In the vegie patch

Kaffir lime is easy to grow in a pot or in the ground, both for the fruit and the leaves. Treat as for other citrus and keep a close eye out for citrus leaf miner and scale.
