How to season boiled potatoes

When do spring, summer, fall, and winter start and end? How to season boiled potatoes depends on which definition you use and if you are north or south of the equator. This is why we have seasons. Since the year has 12 months, each season lasts about three months.

However, the dates when the seasons begin and end vary depending on whom you ask. Two methods are most commonly used to define the dates of the seasons: the astronomical definition and the meteorological definition. Winter begins on the winter solstice. The beginning of each season marks the end of the last. Because the timings of the equinoxes and solstices change each year, the length of astronomical seasons within a year and between years also vary. For example, under the definition of astronomical seasons, the June solstice marks the start of summer in the Northern Hemisphere, but it is the start of winter in the Southern Hemisphere.

The same rule applies for the other seasons. For example, Australia and New Zealand use the meteorological definition, so spring begins on September 1 each year. In many other countries, both definitions are used, depending on the context. In Ireland, St Brigid’s Day on February 1 is often thought to mark the beginning of spring in the ancient Celtic calendar system.
