Vegetables

Besides a wide range of fruit, we also offer a wide range of the tastiest vegetables. From tomatoes and cucumbers to broccoli and various lettuces. Our vegetables come from Spanish greenhouses and open fields.

Aubergine

You can recognise a good aubergine by its white, spongy flesh and shiny skin, which is where most of the flavour is. At Hillfresh, aubergines are available in multiple sizes by weight.

Romana Lettuce

Romaine is also called Romaine lettuce or Romanas lettuce. This long head of lettuce belongs to the romaine lettuce type. The lettuce is widely eaten in Southern European countries. The lettuce grows straight up. Raw, this lettuce tastes a bit more astringent than head lettuce. The leaves are also a bit firmer. Romaine lettuce is the lettuce in the authentic Caesar salad recipe.

Pointed cabbage

Pointed cabbage is a member of the white cabbage family. It has a pointed shape, a mild taste and is somewhat juicier and easier to digest than white cabbage. Pointed cabbage is ideal for cooking, stewing, braising and stir-frying. You can make all kinds of Western and Eastern dishes with it.

Peppers

Peppers are the cheerful tastemakers of the vegetable world. Especially when the firm skin has a colourful shine. During the ripening process, peppers acquire their specific colour and flavour. Yellow, orange and red peppers have a mild, sweet flavour with a refreshing bite. Green peppers have a slightly spicier and herbal flavour. Hillfresh imports its peppers from Spain and Israel.

Cauliflower

How do you recognize a Hillfresh cauliflower? The leaves are fresh green and are firmly anchored in the stump. During growth they kept the cabbage covered, so that it remained beautiful white in color. The stump cut surface is also not discoloured. And the taste? Very mild and a characteristic bitterness.

Broccoli

Broccoli is the green cousin of cauliflower, but with a softer, finer flavour and a crunchy bite. HillFresh broccoli feels equally firm all over; from the stalk to the beautiful hard green buds. Our broccoli all comes from Spain.

Broccoli

Celery

Celery is the young, light green stems of the celery plant. HillFresh celery has a mild taste and is crunchy. There is a type of celery with green leaf stems and with yellow-green leaf stems, the so-called white or self-bleaching type. The green type is less fibrous and spicier in taste than the self-bleaching type.

Iceberg lettuce

How is our iceberg lettuce so irresistible? The leaves of iceberg lettuce have a special cell structure that allows them to retain a lot of water. This creates that crispy sensation! And feel a crop like that: nice and solid, nice and heavy. Add to this the attractive light green color of the slightly transparent leaves and you have the answer…
