Nigel Slater's Simple Cooking

Nigel Slater's Simple Cooking

Soft and Crisp (1x4)


Air date: Oct 14, 2011

Nigel Slater continues his exploration of brilliant culinary combinations, this time turning his attention to texture. Success in the kitchen is not just about tastes and flavours; contrasting textures can really lift a dish. He makes a classic savoury pie with a puff pastry crust, and a reworking of his favourite childhood pudding: poached pears. He even puts traditional pizza ingredients together in a new way to make an entirely original dish. Nigel also travels to Brighton to meet a couple who have their own seafront smokery, who show him a soft and crisp recipe of their own.
