Lindsay spent some of the tail end of last year and January 2009 having a very exciting time learning fanatstic ways to convert our gorgeous local produce into gourmet food. Grow Wild got a call from ITV to see if there was any interest in taking part in Taste The Nation, a new ITV show. Lindsay spent time up at the Nick Nairn Cook School with Nick Nairn, and Alan Mathieson, one of the fantastic cook school chefs. There were several months of a cooking frenzie along with chef teammates (Susie, Reta and Mike), all representing Midlothian in preparation of the various rounds...
The show is now being screened on stv at 4.30pm daily.
For those of you who haven't yet seen any of the episodes, the purpose of the show is to find out which region is best represented in terms of produce and culinary skills by pitching teams of cooks from regions all over the UK. Each team is mentored by a Michelin starred chef! We can't disclose any results, so it might be worth a watch!
SO- the results....
sadly Midlothian went out, but Aberdeenshire went through to the final, in the end, losing out to Rosemary Shrager's Northumberland team........but it does go to show that Scotland has some darned fine local produce!!!
