Back at the Good Food Show, Birmingham

Our last two updates featured My Cooking Hut and Anne’s Kitchen enjoying the Good Food Show in London, but we’re now back in Brum with Alex, The Princess and the Recipe and Bron of Feast with Bron fame.

Alex and Bron both took part in the Miele Cookery Experience. Alex attended the show on Thursday last week and mentions meeting the Hairy Bikers before being ‘whisked’ (excellent food pun) off to meet Mark Lloyd, head chef at The Cleave Inn, who was leading the ‘experience’,

“What Miele had neglected to tell us was that the ‘experience’ would be on stage in front of a live audience! We put on our best smiles and headed for the stage.”

There was no need for nerves though as Alex turned out a venison toad in the hole, which as you can see looks amazing!

Bron visited the show on the Saturday and her Miele Cooking Experience was with TV Chef Martin Blunos (and Friend of ForeverBetter, Kits). The prospect of cooking in front of an audience of strangers was causing minor trepidation, but on seeing that she’d be cooking scallops was able to relax,

“Scallops. Mmmm – yum. Panic over, I decided I could do this, with or without an audience. Thane Prince set the ball rolling then Martin Blunos came out to much applause and told all of us we were to make scallops baked in the shell, the edges sealed with puff pastry.”

How good do they look? Good work Bron! If you fancy trying them, she has kindly included the recipe on her site.

If this is the sort of thing you’d like to be part of then why not get involved with ForeverBetter and Miele by getting in touch, we’d love to hear from you!
