Simply display the true flavour of the vegetable.

- Use it while it is absolutely fresh
- Don't overcook it
- Don't over-fancify it and obscure the flavour with too many other things.
Your produce has not been degrading in a cool room for weeks so you don't
need to make up for that.

Other than in vegetarian households vegetables are rarely the centre of the
meal in western countries. With good produce you can change that. I still
love my meat but I have grown towards veges. Which is cheaper and better
for my health.

David, you still going to be able to grow a garden, after the Americans
buy up your water rights?

"Australia has privatized its water totally, and basically itıs now for
sale. And thereıs a big American investment firm thatıs actually buying
up water rights. It was supposed to be, originally, just to get the
farmers of the big farm conglomerates to share, to trade, but now itıs
all gone private and international, so theyıre hardly going to support
something that says that water, is a human right, when theyıve
commodified it and said itıs a market commodity."
