Jay Rayner and his panel of food fanatics are in Reading for this week’s episode of The Kitchen Cabinet. Joining Jay on the panel are materials expert, Dr Zoe Laughlin, chef Angela Gray and food writers Sophie Wright and Jordan Bourke. The panel discuss the best way to use up leftover cheese, how to encourage your loved ones to like green vegetables, and tempering versus frying spices. Situated in the biscuit town of Reading, Jay chats to Brendan Carr from Reading Museum, who shares the history of biscuits in Reading, and the intriguing history of the biscuit tin. Meanwhile, Zoe Laughlin answers the question on everyone’s mind: which biscuit is best for dunking? In recognition of Reading’s large Italian community, the panel later discuss their favourite pasta sauce recipes, and hear from local Sardinian pasta maker, Toni Sale who shares his top methods for creating traditional pasta from scratch.
