Deep South food, exciting salad ideas to inspire you and do food awards help the consumer?

Food from the Deep South of America: find out how you can give it a go at home. Plus exciting salad ideas beyond lettuce/tomato/cucumber. And are food awards useful for consumers?

Food of the Deep South: Haitian-born, Scotland-based Peggy Brunache will be cooking food from the deep south of America to complement the music at this year's Southern Fried Festival at Perth Royal Concert Hall. Creole? Cajun? BBQ? Soul food? Find out what is on offer and just how easy it is to make at home.

Salads: Chef Charlie Lockley from Boath House takes Pennie on a forage of his kitchen garden to get inspiration for some exciting salads. From beet leaves to ice salad, corriander to fenugreek, "The Kitchen Cafe" proves that salad is not just a bunch of old lettuce leaves! 

Food Awards: It's the food awards season and as The Great Taste Awards 2011 have just been announced we'll be asking what difference food awards they make to consumers? Do we understand what the labels and stamps mean, are they a reflection of a better product on our own plates or are these awards really just for the food industry?

Kitchen Café Takeaway: Cook and food writer Ghillie Basan makes Pomegranate Salad with basil and mint. Available online as a free podcast and printable recipe.
