  • Finally, we found it... Michelin-starred fish and chips. We were lucky enough to be invited to film at Michelin-starred The Hind's Head to experience firsthand the wonderful world of Heston Blumenthal's cooking.
    Massive thanks to all the team at The Hind's Head for giving us an unforgettable culinary experience!

    That vinegar spray is actually what I've been missing all my life, without realising. You want the vinegar, but you don't want your entire batch of chips to go all soggy. So simple it surprises you no one thought of it before. Which is the hallmark of genius, I suppose.

      I also think that the crew eats after they film the video. They just order again what JOLLY had eaten. In some videos in KoreanEnglishman, throughout the end, Josh usually would say that they would wrap up the video and finish eating off-camera. I think, at those points, the crew joins them in the meal.

      @@SilvaDreams It’s an over used phrase. And WW2 was hardly a good measure of British food. Our tradition is more for herbs than out and out spice, they don’t use a lot of hot spices in French food either (maybe more in the south) and no one denigrates that. Like the Scandinavian countries smoking and pickling is used too, that’s not bland. You get things like clove and nutmeg in sweet things and we have always used pickles, relishes and sauces to add interest to simple dishes, Worcester Sauce, Gentleman’s relish, piccalilli. A lot of those ingredients came via India and the far east so not true to say we never used them.

    Thats on the UK bucket list :) I love the atmosphere in small pubs and while I bet this one is a little more upscale than the place we had a 3 pound lunch at in 2010, the character of the buildings all tell wonderful tales. Creaky floors, dodgy doors, small entryways (being short, I dont have to duck). And then theres the locals that tend to come together for a pint or chat. Love it.

    My mother was a traditional English cook and made stewed oxtail which was absolutely revered across the whole family. This definitely used spices, black peppercorns, blade mace, allspice and dried chilli in a muslin bag, as well ss a bouquet garni. The amount of connective tissue in the oxtail made the wonferfully rich and unctuous gravy. The fat trimmed from the meat was first rendered down and the sections of tail and accompanying onions, carrots and celery were browned in the beef fat, sometimes with the addition of some beef dripping if necessary. The stew would be finished with a good handful of chopped parsley.
