2: From Land and Sea - Norfolk
' A regional dish is a whole countryside.'
In one day, in 1907, 60 million herring were landed at Yarmouth and Lowestoft. But in the whole of 1973 there were only a few thousand. How has this affected the curing of the famous red herring and Yarmouth bloater?
DEREK COOPER sets out to answer some questions and to sample traditional Norfolk fare - crabs, whelks, samphire and boiled beef with dumplings.
