Tunbridge Wells

Jay Rayner and his rabble of recipe experts head to Tunbridge Wells for this week’s episode.

Ready to join Jay from the wings of the Assembly Hall Theatre are materials expert Zoe Laughlin, restaurateur and Mauritian food expert Shelina Permalloo, food writer Jordan Bourke, and chef Paula McIntyre.

Whether it be assessing the size of the bubbles in sparkling water to the importance of ‘burping’ fermented foods, Jay and the panel of food fanatics discuss a range of culinary conundrums. From inventive ways to use up foraged berries, to alternative uses of sparkling water, the panel discusses a range of culinary debates.

And Zoe Laughlin gives us a run down on the varying types and tastes of French beans.
