BBC Radio 4 - The Kitchen Cabinet, Series 39, Grimsby

Jay Rayner hosts a culinary panel show from Grimsby packed full of tasty titbits.

Jay Rayner hosts this week's culinary panel show from Grimsby. Joining him are food writers Melissa Thompson and Fliss Freeborn, Manchester-born chef Rob Owen Brown, and food history wiz Annie Gray.

Inspired by Grimsby’s traditional smoked fish practices and historic ice factories, the panel discuss everything from frozen foods to life hacks for leftovers, and the all important question - do peas belong in fish pie? They reminisce over their best and worst culinary moments, from their food-based milestones to meltdown-worthy meals they’ve cheffed up for themselves. 

Alongside the audience’s questions, guests from Alfred Enderby’s Fish Smokers and Grimsby Ice Factory offer an insightful look into Grimsby’s traditional food production methods.
