Cooking the Books with Gilly Smith

Rick Stein: Food Stories

Listen on

Episode notes

 This week, Gilly is with one of the old skool TV chefs who taught Britain how to eat, Rick Stein

They last met over lunch when she was chatting to him about his book Secret France for the delicious. podcast. This time, it’s about secret Britain, or at least the communities of Britain bursting with flavour and influencing our national diet. Rick Stein’s Food Stories, the book and the BBC show, is about all that we are in Britain and is a subject very close to Gilly's heart. She asks him, after travelling the world – Mexico, Thailand, The Mediterranean, Istanbul to name a few, to find their stories through food, what this book says about our changing nation.

Head over to Gilly's Substack for Extra Bites from the book.
