The Kitchen Cabinet

Episode 3


Listen Later

Jay Rayner and the panel of chefs, cooks and food writers are in Cambridge discussing romantic recipes for vacuum flasks and the complex history of the pineapple.

Joining Jay at Wolfson College, Cambridge are chefs, cooks and food writers Lerato, Tim Hayward, Sophie Wright and resident food historian, Dr Annie Gray.

The panellists explore Cambridge's connection with pineapple, debate the essential condiments every fridge should hold, and consider the most pressing of questions - do chefs use too much butter?

Later, Jay chats to professor Melissa Calaresu of Gonville and Caius College about the discovery of the fruit in Europe.
