Heat: cravings for ratatouille and watermelon under the Indian summer sun

On the Sunday market, Place Nervienne in Mons, the sun slips between the stalls. It makes customers want to extend the summer season. Summer is not over and it shows in the menus we have in mind. Tomato salad, ratatouille, raw vegetables are on the menu for the customers we met.

On the fruit side, seasonal apples and pears have competition. Customers dream of citrus fruits, strawberries and even watermelon. “As soon as the weather is nice, you see the difference“, explains a market gardener to us. “People want refreshing products, fruit salads and they are in a better mood“.

In a better mood and less rushed. For some, the market ends on the terrace. Is this happiness? In any case, it’s a nice interlude between two seasons. The Indian summer palette is broad, delicious and colorful.
