One of the many great things about the UK is its seasons. Apart from giving us all something to talk about – from cries of ‘it’s far too hot’ to ‘when will it ever stop raining’ – our wonderful variety of weather also helps us grow wheat, barley, oats and rye, fruits and vegetables as well as producing dairy and eggs and rearing beef, pork, lamb and more.
Here at Rangemaster, we’re all about celebrating the best of British food. With British Pea Week from 7-13 July, National Cherry Day on 16 July and British Food Fortnight taking place from 26 September to 12 October, it’s the perfect time to take joy in what we eat and how we cook it.
Supporting local farmers and producers means you get seasonal ingredients that taste amazing. And as well as being sustainable thanks to a reduced carbon footprint, buying British wherever possible also supports the UK economy, protects jobs within the industry and delivers high standards of quality, traceability and welfare.
Rangemaster knows all about the benefits of buying British, as this quintessentially British brand has been making range cookers in its Leamington Spa factory for over 200 years! With a rich heritage and history of being at the forefront of design, style and functionality, it’s a name synonymous with the very best of British craftsmanship. The new Elise Luxe range cooker is a perfect example, shown below in the 110cm dual fuel design in Slate with Antique Brass trim as well as the striking Black Edition
And don’t worry if you prefer something modern for your kitchen update or renovation project, as Rangemaster has you covered with its new Estel Deluxe collection, which comes in 90cm, 100cm and 110cm widths and a fabulous choice of colours – Mint, as shown below, Pale Pink, Slate, Bordeaux, Gloss Black, Heather, Misty Blue and Pale Cream with an Antique Brass or Chrome trim.
A Rangemaster range cooker not only creates a striking focal point in any kitchen but it also enhances your dishes so that every meal is cooked to perfection. This is thanks to the expert craftsmanship and attention to detail that gives you a wide choice of specialist features and functions including the Glide-Out Grill, 4-Way Deluxe Glide-Out Grill, Griddle and tall fan oven, perfect for cooking all that British produce.
If you’re looking for inspiration as to what to cook, whether it’s an everyday dinner for the family or something for a special occasion, there are plenty of mouth-watering recipes here, with everything from Steamed Chicken with New Potatoes and Vegetables, to Summer Berry Jam and Cherry Pie.
To enhance your kitchen further, check out AGA Cookshop for a wonderful selection of cookware and textiles with eye-catching prints. The Pomegranate collection is one of our favourites, available in both Black and Ecru designs. While pomegranates themselves aren’t grown here in the UK due to our climate, they are available in UK stores and markets from September to February so keep an eye out in a few months.
