Give Classic British Dishes A Modern Makeover

leslie waters cornish pastryMost of us love our national signature dishes – but with a little imagination they can be transformed into more contemporary versions that are arguably an improvement on the original. Take the good old Cornish pasty for instance – by replacing rolling pastry with a Mission Deli wrap you get a lighter variant that is easier to make and easier on the waistline.

And it’s not only savoury dishes - a Devonshire cream tea can be given that twenty-first century edge using sugared wraps cut into triangles, baked then stacked into a multi-layered summer fruit smasher. In this video feature, celebrity chef Lesley Waters will take you through how to make both dishes, enabling you to create cutting-edge British cuisine.

The Ultimate Guide To Good Taste

tio pepe masterclassIf you have ever felt outwitted by a wine list, lost the battle with an artichoke or mistaken a Pinot Grigio for a Pinot Noir, then you’ll appreciate that having the right knowledge to hand makes all the difference to an evening of good food, drink and entertainment. There is certainly something to be said about being able to drop in a foodie fact here and some wine knowledge there and impressing a sommelier (and your mates) by ordering something other than the ordinary from the wine list, the epitome of understated cool. Now, Tio Pepe, the number one fino sherry, has created a solution for those that want a quick fix to food and drink shortcuts rather than enrol on a six month course.

The most influential names in food and drink have opened their little black books to create the Art of Good Taste Guide (www.artofgoodtaste.com ), the ultimate online reference tool and guide designed to satiate the growing hunger for food and drink knowledge. These tricks of the trade will arm you with everything you need to be a modern gourmet.

Tio Pepe is bringing the Art of Good Taste Guide to life in July with an interactive masterclass with experts from the online guide and lots of good food and drink to match. The event will be held at award winning bar and restaurant, Camino, in Kings Cross, on the evening of Tuesday 21 July. Tickets are free and available on a first come, first served basis, visit www.artofgoodtaste.com for more information. Ticket requests must be submitted by 26th June 2009.
