Coventry

Jay Rayner hosts this week's culinary panel show from Coventry. Marinating the audience with food knowledge are Shelina Permalloo, Angela Gray, Melissa Thompson, and Dr Annie Gray.

The panellists reveal their favourite “unadorned” food while things get a little heated around the question of what constitutes a humble vegetable. Whether you fancy a carrot or a Jerusalem artichoke, the recipes offered up by the team are enough to whet anyone’s appetite.

Bringing the panel together in agreement is 2-Tone Café chef Angela Knight whose speciality is Jamaican cooking. Melissa Thompson talks of the fascinating origins of pimento berries and jerk in the mountains of Jamaica, and Dr Annie Gray looks at the history of the island's cuisine in the UK.
