This episode of Desert Island Dishes is brought to you in partnership with the independent family run butcher H.G.
walter.
Now, I'm particularly excited about this because for over 10 years I have been a customer of HG Walter for both my cooking jobs and also for at home too.
They are one of the most respected butchers in the uk, supplying some of the best chefs and restaurants in the country.
So it's quite cool to know that you are getting restaurant quality meat at home.
And I know I've said this a million times before, but if you start with good ingredients, your life, life as a cook is so much easier.
You barely have to do anything for it to taste delicious.
And we know that good quality meat is more important than ever.
If you're anything like me, you are thinking more and more about the provenance of the food you eat.
And so having a butcher you can trust like H.G.
walter is just a very comforting thing.
Also, never underestimate the knowledge of a butcher.
If you don't know how to cook something, ask when you're in there, they know so much, they can advise about cooking times, the weight you need, and they'll all always have delicious ideas for how they like to serve something.
I found this kind of information absolutely invaluable when I was starting out as a chef.
So I am thrilled to be telling you all about H.G.
walter today.
They're based in London, but they deliver nationwide and you can find out more@www.hgwalter.com.
thank you very much.
