1
00:00:03,315 --> 00:00:06,515
Experiencing great food is one
of the best things about visiting
2
00:00:06,515 --> 00:00:07,995
a new city.
3
00:00:09,355 --> 00:00:12,395
But how can you be sure
that you find the real gems?
4
00:00:13,395 --> 00:00:14,475
Good afternoon, ladies.
5
00:00:14,475 --> 00:00:16,315
Is everything all right?
6
00:00:16,315 --> 00:00:17,555
I'm Fred Sirieix...
7
00:00:17,555 --> 00:00:19,075
Did you enjoy your desserts?
8
00:00:19,075 --> 00:00:21,315
..and I've been working in the
restaurant business
9
00:00:21,315 --> 00:00:22,635
for over 30 years.
10
00:00:22,635 --> 00:00:25,235
I'm a seasoned professional,
and even for me,
11
00:00:25,235 --> 00:00:28,435
it's difficult to find amazing
places to eat.
12
00:00:28,435 --> 00:00:31,475
So I've asked some of Britain's
most celebrated foodies
13
00:00:31,475 --> 00:00:33,955
to open up their little black
books...
14
00:00:33,955 --> 00:00:35,395
Come on! I'm coming!
15
00:00:35,395 --> 00:00:38,475
..and take me to their all-time
favourite places to eat.
16
00:00:38,475 --> 00:00:42,115
You can find gems and little
amazing places down these streets.
17
00:00:42,115 --> 00:00:45,035
This is a tea straight out
of Alice in Wonderland.
18
00:00:46,435 --> 00:00:48,115
Oh! Cheesy mash.
19
00:00:48,115 --> 00:00:49,875
But we won't just be eating.
20
00:00:49,875 --> 00:00:51,955
Look at this!
21
00:00:51,955 --> 00:00:55,115
We'll be meeting the people
behind the scenes...
22
00:00:55,115 --> 00:00:57,955
I can see the sun is shining
in this kitchen. Yeah, man.
23
00:00:57,955 --> 00:00:59,355
..and rolling up our sleeves...
24
00:00:59,355 --> 00:01:00,835
HE EXCLAIMS TRIUMPHANTLY
25
00:01:00,835 --> 00:01:04,555
..to find out how they deliver the
ultimate dining experience.
26
00:01:05,635 --> 00:01:08,475
Oh, it's the best thing ever,
ever, ever!
27
00:01:08,475 --> 00:01:10,115
World-class food...
28
00:01:10,115 --> 00:01:12,995
..and a meal you'll never forget.
29
00:01:12,995 --> 00:01:14,395
How amazing is this?
30
00:01:15,795 --> 00:01:18,035
This is very good.
I'm going to get emotional.
31
00:01:25,235 --> 00:01:28,835
This week, I'm off to Yorkshire
to explore one of the UK's most
32
00:01:28,835 --> 00:01:31,075
varied food scenes.
33
00:01:31,075 --> 00:01:34,315
And my guide will be Britain's
queen of baking,
34
00:01:34,315 --> 00:01:36,755
Nadiya Hussain.
35
00:01:36,755 --> 00:01:38,715
I adore Yorkshire.
36
00:01:38,715 --> 00:01:41,875
It will always have a really special
place in my heart.
37
00:01:41,875 --> 00:01:44,075
It's the place where my
husband's from.
38
00:01:44,075 --> 00:01:45,795
It's where I lived for ten years,
39
00:01:45,795 --> 00:01:47,315
and I had all my babies.
40
00:01:47,315 --> 00:01:49,755
So it's my home away from home.
41
00:01:49,755 --> 00:01:52,795
Because Yorkshire is so huge,
42
00:01:52,795 --> 00:01:56,475
there is just so much to see
and so much to eat.
43
00:01:56,475 --> 00:02:00,315
And the reason why it's so special
to me is because it's all
44
00:02:00,315 --> 00:02:02,955
about humble ingredients
that are affordable,
45
00:02:02,955 --> 00:02:05,355
but out of this world,
46
00:02:05,355 --> 00:02:07,435
and Fred's mind
is about to be blown.
47
00:02:13,315 --> 00:02:16,315
Yorkshire has a population
as large as Scotland,
48
00:02:16,315 --> 00:02:18,795
and is the biggest county
in Britain,
49
00:02:18,795 --> 00:02:21,915
stretching from the Humber,
up into the Pennines
50
00:02:21,915 --> 00:02:25,035
and across to the dramatic
North Sea coast.
51
00:02:25,035 --> 00:02:28,755
It is home to multicultural cities
like Bradford and Leeds...
52
00:02:29,955 --> 00:02:33,115
..plus spectacular and unspoiled
landscapes,
53
00:02:33,115 --> 00:02:35,995
including the Moors and the Dales,
54
00:02:35,995 --> 00:02:39,315
giving it the nickname
"God's own country".
55
00:02:39,315 --> 00:02:42,995
Each geographical area has its own
unique food story,
56
00:02:42,995 --> 00:02:47,155
and I can't wait to see what
Nadiya has in store for me.
57
00:02:47,155 --> 00:02:48,995
Isn't it just glorious?
58
00:02:48,995 --> 00:02:50,275
It's beautiful.
59
00:02:50,275 --> 00:02:52,555
You know, Nadiya, when I think
about Yorkshire,
60
00:02:52,555 --> 00:02:54,155
I think of Yorkshire tea,
61
00:02:54,155 --> 00:02:55,955
pies, Yorkshire pudding.
62
00:02:55,955 --> 00:02:58,115
Postman Pat.
SHE LAUGHS
63
00:02:58,115 --> 00:03:02,715
I don't think about it as a
centre of gastronomy in the UK.
64
00:03:02,715 --> 00:03:05,715
Because it's so massive,
with the different landscape,
65
00:03:05,715 --> 00:03:08,955
you get some of the most
dynamic food,
66
00:03:08,955 --> 00:03:11,795
using the humblest ingredients.
67
00:03:11,795 --> 00:03:13,635
The most amazing cheeses,
68
00:03:13,635 --> 00:03:16,515
beautiful, beautiful, fresh seafood,
69
00:03:16,515 --> 00:03:19,355
some of the most authentic
Asian food,
70
00:03:19,355 --> 00:03:21,155
and the best cakes.
71
00:03:21,155 --> 00:03:23,555
So you know what, Fred? It's not
all about pies,
72
00:03:23,555 --> 00:03:26,795
and we are going to experience
some extraordinary,
73
00:03:26,795 --> 00:03:28,875
absolutely dynamic food.
74
00:03:28,875 --> 00:03:30,195
I can't wait.
75
00:03:34,555 --> 00:03:38,235
The first place in Nadiya's little
black book in the heart of the
76
00:03:38,235 --> 00:03:42,075
county is the elegant and
fashionable spa town of Harrogate,
77
00:03:42,075 --> 00:03:43,995
home of Yorkshire Tea.
78
00:03:43,995 --> 00:03:45,595
She's asked me to look smart,
79
00:03:45,595 --> 00:03:48,555
so I'm expecting somewhere
very special.
80
00:03:48,555 --> 00:03:51,475
Fred, you are in for a treat.
81
00:03:51,475 --> 00:03:54,075
We are going to Bettys Tea Room.
82
00:03:54,075 --> 00:03:55,915
I've never heard of it.
83
00:03:55,915 --> 00:03:57,715
How have you never heard of Bettys?!
84
00:03:57,715 --> 00:04:01,395
Anybody who comes to the UK,
if you want the best afternoon tea,
85
00:04:01,395 --> 00:04:05,915
the best cakes, the best tea, the
best service, you come to Bettys.
86
00:04:05,915 --> 00:04:08,675
And people come from all over
the world to come here?
87
00:04:08,675 --> 00:04:11,475
Yeah, it is THE tea room
of all tea rooms.
88
00:04:11,475 --> 00:04:14,595
So we have this rite of passage.
Whenever we bring the kids -
89
00:04:14,595 --> 00:04:17,235
which isn't very often because
it's a treat -
90
00:04:17,235 --> 00:04:20,235
I make them walk right from down
there, all the way up. Right.
91
00:04:20,235 --> 00:04:22,995
Right up this steep hill, because
if you're going to have your cake,
92
00:04:22,995 --> 00:04:24,515
you've got to work for it.
93
00:04:24,515 --> 00:04:26,915
Well, I'd rather have some fun.
Oh, I can't do it!
94
00:04:29,395 --> 00:04:30,875
You don't make them do that?!
95
00:04:30,875 --> 00:04:32,875
I don't make them do that!
It's because it's wet.
96
00:04:32,875 --> 00:04:35,515
You're a bigger kid than them! Come
on, let's go in and have a brew.
97
00:04:35,515 --> 00:04:37,115
We have to come here in the
sunshine,
98
00:04:37,115 --> 00:04:39,755
and then we can slide all the way
down. It never shines.
99
00:04:41,395 --> 00:04:46,075
Bettys is set in a Victorian
building that dates back to 1900.
100
00:04:46,075 --> 00:04:50,155
Built in the Scottish baronial
style, with its ornate facade,
101
00:04:50,155 --> 00:04:51,795
it's simply stunning.
102
00:04:51,795 --> 00:04:54,115
Come on, come on. You're in a rush!
I am, come on!
103
00:04:54,115 --> 00:04:56,435
What's going on with you and your
little legs?
104
00:04:56,435 --> 00:04:59,435
This is the best bit. Come over
here, come over here.
105
00:04:59,435 --> 00:05:01,035
This, right...
106
00:05:01,035 --> 00:05:04,955
Just take a moment to just
enjoy this.
107
00:05:04,955 --> 00:05:08,115
I mean, look at the effort
that's gone into
108
00:05:08,115 --> 00:05:10,235
creating this beautiful display.
109
00:05:10,235 --> 00:05:12,955
I mean, if this doesn't make
you stop and wonder what's inside,
110
00:05:12,955 --> 00:05:14,715
I don't know what else will.
111
00:05:14,715 --> 00:05:17,115
You don't come up with a display
like this if you don't know
112
00:05:17,115 --> 00:05:18,515
what you're doing.
113
00:05:18,515 --> 00:05:22,035
It's like, you know, those beautiful
Christmas windows in New York,
114
00:05:22,035 --> 00:05:23,995
like the big Christmas displays?
115
00:05:23,995 --> 00:05:26,195
well, every season, this display
changes.
116
00:05:26,195 --> 00:05:28,915
And we're in the middle
of Yorkshire, in Harrogate.
117
00:05:28,915 --> 00:05:31,355
I like the way you say Harrogate.
Say it again? 'Arrogate.
118
00:05:31,355 --> 00:05:33,715
Oh, yes! Come on, let's go inside.
119
00:05:33,715 --> 00:05:35,035
Come on.
120
00:05:36,635 --> 00:05:38,915
This place is a Yorkshire
institution.
121
00:05:38,915 --> 00:05:43,155
Opened over 100 years ago by Swiss
confectioner and baker
122
00:05:43,155 --> 00:05:44,715
Frederick Belmont,
123
00:05:44,715 --> 00:05:47,315
it is still family-owned today -
124
00:05:47,315 --> 00:05:52,355
Swiss and Yorkshire dual heritage
showcased in outstanding patisserie,
125
00:05:52,355 --> 00:05:55,235
cakes and local Yorkshire produce.
126
00:05:55,235 --> 00:05:59,475
But as you enter, it's the grandeur
and ambience that transports you
127
00:05:59,475 --> 00:06:04,195
back in time and signifies you are
in for a luxurious experience.
128
00:06:04,195 --> 00:06:07,475
It's going to be good. I'm with the
queen of cakes. Uh-huh.
129
00:06:07,475 --> 00:06:10,555
The restaurant serves breakfast,
lunch and dinner.
130
00:06:10,555 --> 00:06:14,835
But for Nadiya, it's all about
the legendary afternoon teas.
131
00:06:14,835 --> 00:06:16,795
Tables here are so sought after,
132
00:06:16,795 --> 00:06:21,115
the queues form around the block
the moment it opens.
133
00:06:21,115 --> 00:06:22,955
Nadiya, I'm so excited to be here.
134
00:06:22,955 --> 00:06:26,355
You know what? Whenever I come
here, I'm always really distracted
135
00:06:26,355 --> 00:06:29,155
by the sounds and, like, just
being in this space,
136
00:06:29,155 --> 00:06:30,475
because it is really special.
137
00:06:30,475 --> 00:06:32,675
So they're not taking any
reservations here.
138
00:06:32,675 --> 00:06:35,555
It's just that you just turn
up and then they give you a table.
139
00:06:35,555 --> 00:06:36,955
I've had to queue. Right.
140
00:06:36,955 --> 00:06:39,795
But I've always just turned up, and
that's what I quite like about it.
141
00:06:39,795 --> 00:06:41,635
So it's an institution for
everybody. Yes.
142
00:06:41,635 --> 00:06:45,115
It's not just one that's reserved
for the elite.
143
00:06:45,115 --> 00:06:50,315
The tea room serves 220 covers
and several table turns per day,
144
00:06:50,315 --> 00:06:54,235
which is no mean feat, but how do
the team here achieve this?
145
00:06:54,235 --> 00:06:56,875
And I think it's partly to do
with the Yorkshire charm.
146
00:06:56,875 --> 00:06:59,635
I'm married to a Yorkshireman.
Can I just say...? Oh, here we go.
147
00:06:59,635 --> 00:07:01,275
So you would say that!
148
00:07:01,275 --> 00:07:04,795
There is nothing like it. I think
this is the epitome of that.
149
00:07:04,795 --> 00:07:06,715
I lived in Yorkshire for nearly a
decade,
150
00:07:06,715 --> 00:07:09,475
and there's just something here that
you don't get anywhere else.
151
00:07:09,475 --> 00:07:10,835
It's pretty special,
152
00:07:10,835 --> 00:07:13,875
and I think they've encapsulated
that here at Bettys really well.
153
00:07:13,875 --> 00:07:16,355
This is what it is. It's magical,
because when you look around,
154
00:07:16,355 --> 00:07:18,595
it's so pretty, it's so charming.
155
00:07:18,595 --> 00:07:21,075
The whole place is just beautiful.
156
00:07:21,075 --> 00:07:23,475
Yeah, but wait till you've had this
afternoon tea.
157
00:07:23,475 --> 00:07:26,115
This is the icing on the cake.
158
00:07:26,115 --> 00:07:27,955
And look, £19.95.
159
00:07:27,955 --> 00:07:29,195
That's quite good, right?
160
00:07:31,035 --> 00:07:34,475
For that sum we shall receive a
selection of sandwiches,
161
00:07:34,475 --> 00:07:37,915
a multitude of mini cakes, and,
of course, tea.
162
00:07:37,915 --> 00:07:40,755
But Nadiya wants me to try two of
her favourite
163
00:07:40,755 --> 00:07:42,395
Yorkshire bakes as well.
164
00:07:42,395 --> 00:07:44,235
I'll be stuffed!
165
00:07:44,235 --> 00:07:46,915
There's no way, mm-mm, no way I'm
coming here and not
166
00:07:46,915 --> 00:07:49,275
having a fat rascal
and fondant fancies.
167
00:07:49,275 --> 00:07:50,835
So, what's the Fat Rascal?
168
00:07:50,835 --> 00:07:52,595
It's like a fat scone. Ah!
169
00:07:52,595 --> 00:07:54,795
It's the only place in the world
where you can say "fat"
170
00:07:54,795 --> 00:07:56,395
and not get in trouble.
171
00:07:56,395 --> 00:07:58,515
This is a completely Yorkshire
thing.
172
00:07:58,515 --> 00:08:00,955
Like, you are not going to get
a fat rascal anywhere else
173
00:08:00,955 --> 00:08:02,075
but in Yorkshire.
174
00:08:02,075 --> 00:08:03,795
We'll have the afternoon tea,
175
00:08:03,795 --> 00:08:06,755
and please can we have some
fondant fancies?
176
00:08:06,755 --> 00:08:07,955
What is that?
177
00:08:07,955 --> 00:08:11,435
Just, like, little iced squares
of cake.
178
00:08:11,435 --> 00:08:14,075
Come on. Like, right? They're the
best fondant fancies.
179
00:08:14,075 --> 00:08:16,595
Never had it before.
SHE EXHALES
180
00:08:16,595 --> 00:08:19,035
Your world is about to be changed.
Really? Yes.
181
00:08:20,355 --> 00:08:21,795
Thank you.
182
00:08:21,795 --> 00:08:23,475
The service is so pleasant.
183
00:08:23,475 --> 00:08:25,635
But there's, like, a choreography
that they do. Yeah.
184
00:08:25,635 --> 00:08:28,355
I love how everything is
so precise here, because you want
185
00:08:28,355 --> 00:08:30,715
to reserve your energy to eat
the scones.
186
00:08:30,715 --> 00:08:32,595
SHE LAUGHS
187
00:08:32,595 --> 00:08:34,595
Scones. The scones.
Get it right, Fred.
188
00:08:34,595 --> 00:08:36,835
Look at the silver. You know
the cake is going to be good
189
00:08:36,835 --> 00:08:38,435
when the silver is like this.
190
00:08:38,435 --> 00:08:39,835
It's like a mirror!
191
00:08:39,835 --> 00:08:42,795
There's some poor soul out there,
polishing it, you know. Yes.
192
00:08:42,795 --> 00:08:45,955
It's... For me, it's an insight
about the back of house,
193
00:08:45,955 --> 00:08:48,235
into the values and the vision
of the business,
194
00:08:48,235 --> 00:08:50,875
and everything has to follow.
I knew you'd like this place,
195
00:08:50,875 --> 00:08:52,995
and we haven't even got our
afternoon tea yet.
196
00:08:52,995 --> 00:08:54,875
Oh, la, la. Thank you.
197
00:08:54,875 --> 00:08:56,675
Oh, he said, "Oh, la, la"!
Ooh, look!
198
00:08:56,675 --> 00:08:58,715
Two fat rascals.
199
00:08:58,715 --> 00:08:59,835
Thank you. Thank you.
200
00:08:59,835 --> 00:09:01,195
OK!
201
00:09:01,195 --> 00:09:04,675
I mean, this is a tea straight
out of Alice in Wonderland.
202
00:09:05,995 --> 00:09:08,195
The cakes here are delightful.
203
00:09:08,195 --> 00:09:11,755
Rich chocolate cubes,
zesty lemon tart,
204
00:09:11,755 --> 00:09:13,315
Engadine slice.
205
00:09:13,315 --> 00:09:15,275
And that's just on our tea tower.
206
00:09:16,835 --> 00:09:20,075
For me, this is just a delight
for the eyes. Tea?
207
00:09:20,075 --> 00:09:22,035
Yes, please. Let's do it.
208
00:09:22,035 --> 00:09:24,835
The team here serve over 62,000
209
00:09:24,835 --> 00:09:27,475
afternoon teas every year.
210
00:09:27,475 --> 00:09:29,235
You have a fat rascal.
211
00:09:29,235 --> 00:09:32,235
Before you do anything, look at
this, Fred. Do you see it?
212
00:09:32,235 --> 00:09:34,315
Well, it's a face. It's a face!
213
00:09:34,315 --> 00:09:36,795
You're so excited about this
fat rascal.
214
00:09:36,795 --> 00:09:38,355
They're so delicious.
215
00:09:38,355 --> 00:09:40,795
Smell good, right? I can smell the
butter. Yes.
216
00:09:40,795 --> 00:09:43,435
Oh! Yeah.
217
00:09:43,435 --> 00:09:46,155
For anyone who's never had a fat
rascal before, I would say
218
00:09:46,155 --> 00:09:50,115
it's like a cross between a scone
and a rock cake. Oh!
219
00:09:50,115 --> 00:09:51,995
See? He's in. Mm.
220
00:09:51,995 --> 00:09:54,435
This is very good. And they've
got oranges in there, no?
221
00:09:54,435 --> 00:09:57,795
Is it orange zest? Yes, so you've
got currants and that mixed peel,
222
00:09:57,795 --> 00:09:59,555
that little chew that you get
inside.
223
00:09:59,555 --> 00:10:01,515
Oh, I just... That... Oh, my.
224
00:10:01,515 --> 00:10:02,915
Yeah.
225
00:10:02,915 --> 00:10:06,395
These plump and crumbly
currant-filled fruit bakes
226
00:10:06,395 --> 00:10:09,115
have chewy candied peel inside.
227
00:10:09,115 --> 00:10:12,075
Best served warm,
with lashings of butter,
228
00:10:12,075 --> 00:10:15,475
they melt in the mouth
and taste luxurious.
229
00:10:15,475 --> 00:10:17,515
Somebody's going to become
a fat rascal
230
00:10:17,515 --> 00:10:18,995
by the time they're out of here!
231
00:10:18,995 --> 00:10:21,235
Yes. This is so indulgent.
232
00:10:21,235 --> 00:10:24,875
Fat rascals are Bettys'
biggest selling bakery product.
233
00:10:24,875 --> 00:10:29,355
Around 2,000 are sold every week
in their Harrogate branch alone.
234
00:10:29,355 --> 00:10:31,395
Oh... There's no going back.
235
00:10:31,395 --> 00:10:33,995
This is very good.
Isn't it delicious?
236
00:10:33,995 --> 00:10:35,475
For me, this is a revelation.
237
00:10:35,475 --> 00:10:40,315
If we were going to sum up Yorkshire
in a sweet treat,
238
00:10:40,315 --> 00:10:42,155
it would be a fat rascal,
239
00:10:42,155 --> 00:10:46,195
because it's delicious,
it's indulgent, and it's simple
240
00:10:46,195 --> 00:10:47,515
and it's fun.
241
00:10:47,515 --> 00:10:49,635
I would love to know
how to make this.
242
00:10:49,635 --> 00:10:51,275
I want to have the recipe.
243
00:10:51,275 --> 00:10:52,515
Can I get in on that?
244
00:10:52,515 --> 00:10:58,195
I know that afternoon tea is sacred,
but I like to dunk my...
245
00:10:58,195 --> 00:11:00,435
What are you doing?
..my scone in my tea.
246
00:11:00,435 --> 00:11:01,635
That's hideous.
247
00:11:01,635 --> 00:11:03,075
Why would you do that?!
248
00:11:03,075 --> 00:11:04,555
It's lovely.
249
00:11:04,555 --> 00:11:06,515
We don't do that up here.
250
00:11:06,515 --> 00:11:09,355
This is very nice. People are
watching, Fred, stop it.
251
00:11:09,355 --> 00:11:12,195
I think we should try
our fondant fancies.
252
00:11:12,195 --> 00:11:14,715
You've never had a fondant fancy
before, ever, ever? Never.
253
00:11:14,715 --> 00:11:16,795
So let me set it up for you.
254
00:11:16,795 --> 00:11:20,755
So two layers of cake with jam
in between, and then it's got,
255
00:11:20,755 --> 00:11:24,835
like, a sweet fondant icing, and
each one is always decorated.
256
00:11:24,835 --> 00:11:27,235
I think that's what makes it
special, is that somebody
257
00:11:27,235 --> 00:11:29,275
is piping them individually.
258
00:11:29,275 --> 00:11:31,715
Look at the detail.
Look how beautiful these cakes are.
259
00:11:31,715 --> 00:11:33,595
Precision, right? Yes.
260
00:11:33,595 --> 00:11:37,915
Genoese sponge forms a sandwich,
spread with buttercream
261
00:11:37,915 --> 00:11:42,435
and raspberry preserve, and covered
with a layer of soft marzipan
262
00:11:42,435 --> 00:11:45,115
and finally fondant icing.
263
00:11:45,115 --> 00:11:47,675
It's a cake fit for a queen -
264
00:11:47,675 --> 00:11:49,995
even if she's one that bakes.
265
00:11:49,995 --> 00:11:52,635
It's just the right amount
of sweet, tart,
266
00:11:52,635 --> 00:11:54,915
buttery goodness, all in one cake.
267
00:11:54,915 --> 00:11:57,875
Just need one fondant fancy.
It's perfect. Very good.
268
00:11:57,875 --> 00:12:00,475
I don't normally go for cakes
like this, but this one
269
00:12:00,475 --> 00:12:01,875
is really well made.
270
00:12:01,875 --> 00:12:04,235
If you have too much fondant,
then it would be too sweet,
271
00:12:04,235 --> 00:12:06,235
it would be inedible. Yeah, exactly.
272
00:12:06,235 --> 00:12:09,915
And that marzipan
is really delicious, you know,
273
00:12:09,915 --> 00:12:12,195
and it's the subtlety of it
that's really impressive.
274
00:12:12,195 --> 00:12:15,355
And the fact that, like, every time
I've come here, each one is exactly
275
00:12:15,355 --> 00:12:18,035
the same, every single time,
and it doesn't taste different,
276
00:12:18,035 --> 00:12:20,835
it doesn't look different.
I think that's good going, that is.
277
00:12:20,835 --> 00:12:23,115
They do 1,000 covers
every single day.
278
00:12:23,115 --> 00:12:25,115
Can you imagine how organised
you have to be?
279
00:12:25,115 --> 00:12:26,755
I mean, look how many staff there
are here.
280
00:12:26,755 --> 00:12:29,515
I can transport myself two years
in the future and I could be doing
281
00:12:29,515 --> 00:12:32,035
this and it would be
exactly the same flavours,
282
00:12:32,035 --> 00:12:34,715
the same sounds, the same happy,
283
00:12:34,715 --> 00:12:37,395
smiley waiters, waitresses.
284
00:12:37,395 --> 00:12:39,755
You have an experience,
you have a good time.
285
00:12:39,755 --> 00:12:42,515
You have good quality food
in amazing surroundings,
286
00:12:42,515 --> 00:12:44,955
and that makes you feel special.
Yeah.
287
00:12:44,955 --> 00:12:48,915
Bettys have taken the humble ritual
of a bake and a brew
288
00:12:48,915 --> 00:12:53,995
and elevated it into an experience
worthy of a fine dining restaurant.
289
00:12:53,995 --> 00:12:57,955
And we'll be back to uncover some of
the secrets of their cakes later.
290
00:13:02,515 --> 00:13:06,155
The Yorkshire food scene
is as varied as its scenery,
291
00:13:06,155 --> 00:13:08,795
and our next stop
in the industrial south
292
00:13:08,795 --> 00:13:11,835
is its second largest city, Leeds.
293
00:13:11,835 --> 00:13:15,315
We are bypassing the centre
in favour of Harehills,
294
00:13:15,315 --> 00:13:18,355
two miles north-east of the city
centre.
295
00:13:18,355 --> 00:13:21,315
This is the place that I lived
for almost a decade.
296
00:13:21,315 --> 00:13:23,035
I had my three kids here.
297
00:13:23,035 --> 00:13:26,795
So there's so many amazing memories
attached to this place,
298
00:13:26,795 --> 00:13:30,595
and I really, really can't wait
for you to check this place out.
299
00:13:30,595 --> 00:13:34,195
After the Second World War,
thousands of immigrants
300
00:13:34,195 --> 00:13:37,875
from all over South Asia
travelled to West Yorkshire
301
00:13:37,875 --> 00:13:41,435
to take up jobs in
its booming textile industries.
302
00:13:41,435 --> 00:13:46,155
The Asian population in some areas
is now as much as 40%,
303
00:13:46,155 --> 00:13:49,835
and the delicious food here
reflects its diverse community.
304
00:13:49,835 --> 00:13:54,075
I am taking you to this amazing
place called Anand's,
305
00:13:54,075 --> 00:13:57,475
and you would never know by looking
at it that it's special at all.
306
00:13:57,475 --> 00:14:00,995
But one of my favourite things
in the world to eat is samosas.
307
00:14:00,995 --> 00:14:03,875
I've had samosas. I mean, I don't
know if they were as good as
308
00:14:03,875 --> 00:14:06,475
the one we're going to have now,
but I don't say I'm a specialist
309
00:14:06,475 --> 00:14:08,515
of samosas, so I need educating.
310
00:14:08,515 --> 00:14:12,035
OK, it's hard to perfect
the perfect samosa,
311
00:14:12,035 --> 00:14:15,035
and I'm telling you,
these guys have... Like, honestly,
312
00:14:15,035 --> 00:14:16,635
they make the best samosas,
313
00:14:16,635 --> 00:14:19,515
and I cannot wait for you
to try them.
314
00:14:20,955 --> 00:14:24,955
Anand Sweets has been a fixture
in the area for 25 years.
315
00:14:24,955 --> 00:14:28,435
The Chera family, from the Punjab
in India's north,
316
00:14:28,435 --> 00:14:30,475
run this vegetarian cafe,
317
00:14:30,475 --> 00:14:33,595
specialising in handmade
Indian sweets
318
00:14:33,595 --> 00:14:35,955
and savoury street food snacks.
319
00:14:35,955 --> 00:14:39,435
Mum Surjit and dad Harvinder
run the kitchen,
320
00:14:39,435 --> 00:14:41,715
and their daughters
work front of house.
321
00:14:41,715 --> 00:14:44,675
Wait, wait! You wait! You wait!
322
00:14:44,675 --> 00:14:46,715
OK, come on. You are just in a rush
to go to Anand's!
323
00:14:46,715 --> 00:14:48,275
Oh, I'm so excited!
324
00:14:48,275 --> 00:14:49,915
We are here!
325
00:14:54,515 --> 00:14:56,235
Nadiya, can I just say,
326
00:14:56,235 --> 00:14:59,315
you are as colourful
as all the desserts behind you?
327
00:14:59,315 --> 00:15:01,755
You see where I get
my inspiration from, right?
328
00:15:01,755 --> 00:15:03,595
You always say you eat
with your eyes first.
329
00:15:03,595 --> 00:15:05,195
Isn't this a feast for your eyes?
330
00:15:05,195 --> 00:15:07,035
It looks beautiful,
but you know what?
331
00:15:07,035 --> 00:15:09,675
I have no idea
what's in front of me here.
332
00:15:11,515 --> 00:15:14,995
Asian sweets and savouries
adorn the counter,
333
00:15:14,995 --> 00:15:19,155
like gulab jamun,
pakoras and kulfi.
334
00:15:19,155 --> 00:15:22,475
The smell of spices fill the air
in this humble cafe,
335
00:15:22,475 --> 00:15:25,715
but we are here to try Nadiya's
absolute favourite
336
00:15:25,715 --> 00:15:28,355
South Asian snack - the samosa.
337
00:15:28,355 --> 00:15:30,395
Do you know how many samosas
I can eat in one go?
338
00:15:30,395 --> 00:15:32,635
Within 24 hours? Go on.
339
00:15:32,635 --> 00:15:33,755
58 samosas.
340
00:15:33,755 --> 00:15:36,555
This size? Yeah, about that size.
341
00:15:36,555 --> 00:15:40,755
Eating samosas is a part of
growing up as an Asian child.
342
00:15:40,755 --> 00:15:43,595
And this place, they are
the king of samosas.
343
00:15:43,595 --> 00:15:46,555
And it's evident by
the amount of people you see
344
00:15:46,555 --> 00:15:48,675
just hanging around
desperate to get in,
345
00:15:48,675 --> 00:15:51,275
the queues during Ramadan
when we're fasting -
346
00:15:51,275 --> 00:15:53,635
this place is heaving!
347
00:15:53,635 --> 00:15:56,195
There's a reason why it has
such a great reputation,
348
00:15:56,195 --> 00:15:58,835
is because they do make
the best samosas.
349
00:16:00,795 --> 00:16:06,435
In the kitchen at the rear of
the cafe, over 150,000 samosas
350
00:16:06,435 --> 00:16:11,035
are handmade personally by Surjit
and Harvinder every year.
351
00:16:11,035 --> 00:16:14,755
That's five for every person
living in Harehills.
352
00:16:14,755 --> 00:16:16,715
What would you like to order?
353
00:16:16,715 --> 00:16:18,195
We're going to have some samosas.
354
00:16:18,195 --> 00:16:20,155
Surprise, surprise!
We're having some samosas.
355
00:16:20,155 --> 00:16:21,355
Well, of course!
356
00:16:21,355 --> 00:16:24,035
But also, can we have a couple of
samosa chaats as well, please?
357
00:16:24,035 --> 00:16:27,075
Yeah, sure. And some chai.
Of course, yeah. That's it.
358
00:16:27,075 --> 00:16:28,875
Thank you. Thank you.
Thank you very much.
359
00:16:28,875 --> 00:16:31,195
Why did you bring me
to this particular shop?
360
00:16:31,195 --> 00:16:33,115
So this is where
we started a family.
361
00:16:33,115 --> 00:16:35,595
This is where... Like,
this is my children's home.
362
00:16:35,595 --> 00:16:38,035
They were born right down the road
in that hospital.
363
00:16:38,035 --> 00:16:39,835
This is more than
a samosa for you here.
364
00:16:39,835 --> 00:16:41,075
This is a memory.
365
00:16:41,075 --> 00:16:43,915
Are these ones the best recipe?
Everyone has their own recipe.
366
00:16:43,915 --> 00:16:45,555
Everyone has their own traditions.
367
00:16:45,555 --> 00:16:48,195
And sometimes, it's lovely to find
a little taste of home
368
00:16:48,195 --> 00:16:49,395
away from your own home,
369
00:16:49,395 --> 00:16:50,955
and this is
what this place is about.
370
00:16:50,955 --> 00:16:53,875
Samosas can be found all over India.
371
00:16:53,875 --> 00:16:56,115
Each region has its own recipe.
372
00:16:56,115 --> 00:16:58,955
Commonly thought of
as an Indian snack,
373
00:16:58,955 --> 00:17:02,195
they were actually introduced
to South Asia by traders
374
00:17:02,195 --> 00:17:04,635
from the Middle East
in the 13th century.
375
00:17:04,635 --> 00:17:06,915
Wow! Right?
376
00:17:06,915 --> 00:17:09,115
Is your mouth watering?
Because mine is.
377
00:17:09,115 --> 00:17:11,155
Oh, it's so exciting! I am so
excited,
378
00:17:11,155 --> 00:17:13,155
because for me, it's completely new.
379
00:17:13,155 --> 00:17:14,795
Can you smell it? Can you smell it?
380
00:17:14,795 --> 00:17:16,915
Yeah. And it's beautiful to look at.
381
00:17:18,035 --> 00:17:19,675
So tell me, what have we got here?
382
00:17:19,675 --> 00:17:22,355
That's a samosa, and that's, like,
two different types of chutney.
383
00:17:22,355 --> 00:17:24,155
So you've got, like, a green one.
384
00:17:24,155 --> 00:17:26,595
Usually that's chilli and coriander,
and this one's tamarind,
385
00:17:26,595 --> 00:17:28,635
so you've got spice and tart.
386
00:17:28,635 --> 00:17:30,515
It sounds like
it's going to be delicious.
387
00:17:32,035 --> 00:17:36,355
These tasty, savoury parcels
are filled with potato, peas
388
00:17:36,355 --> 00:17:39,915
and coriander, then spiced with
masala and green chilli
389
00:17:39,915 --> 00:17:43,635
to produce a mouthful of
balanced South Asian perfection.
390
00:17:44,835 --> 00:17:47,675
Nadiya's also ordered something
I've never heard of -
391
00:17:47,675 --> 00:17:49,515
samosa chaat,
392
00:17:49,515 --> 00:17:51,955
which has a base of crumbled samosa,
393
00:17:51,955 --> 00:17:54,355
covered with a chickpea curry
394
00:17:54,355 --> 00:17:56,635
that's been infused with paprika,
395
00:17:56,635 --> 00:17:58,675
cumin and many other spices,
396
00:17:58,675 --> 00:18:02,115
all to be washed down with
an aromatic chai tea.
397
00:18:02,115 --> 00:18:03,195
Oh, it's very soft.
398
00:18:03,195 --> 00:18:04,995
I was expecting it to be quite hard.
399
00:18:04,995 --> 00:18:08,635
Yeah, it's, like, really
kind of buttery, soft pastry
400
00:18:08,635 --> 00:18:10,235
and you just go straight in.
401
00:18:10,235 --> 00:18:12,715
Mmm! Right?
402
00:18:12,715 --> 00:18:14,595
Oh, wow! Oh, wow.
403
00:18:14,595 --> 00:18:16,555
I like that. Fred, Fred, Fred...
404
00:18:16,555 --> 00:18:19,435
Drop it in and then it goes
all the way to... Eventually,
405
00:18:19,435 --> 00:18:22,035
that's going to be packed
with sauce, so drop some in.
406
00:18:22,035 --> 00:18:24,115
Oh, no, no. No, no, no.
407
00:18:24,115 --> 00:18:27,315
No, but if you do that,
your filling falls into the sauce.
408
00:18:27,315 --> 00:18:29,755
So I put the two sauce... Ooh!
Oh, yeah, man. That's it.
409
00:18:29,755 --> 00:18:31,555
That tamarind sauce. Oh, yes.
410
00:18:31,555 --> 00:18:33,675
The two sauces together, yeah?
Mm-hm.
411
00:18:35,235 --> 00:18:36,635
You have to have it together.
412
00:18:36,635 --> 00:18:38,075
It's like an explosion in my mouth.
413
00:18:38,075 --> 00:18:40,515
Is it like...? Where are you going
to get flavour like this?
414
00:18:40,515 --> 00:18:43,555
This is why a place like this
has lasted the test of time.
415
00:18:43,555 --> 00:18:45,995
You are getting right into it,
Freddo! It's nice!
416
00:18:45,995 --> 00:18:48,635
Oh, we are going to make
a Bengali out of you yet.
417
00:18:50,275 --> 00:18:53,715
Samosas are made
using an all-purpose flour dough
418
00:18:53,715 --> 00:18:55,955
that's flattened
and turned into cones.
419
00:18:55,955 --> 00:18:59,835
They are then filled with a mix of
potatoes, peas and spices
420
00:18:59,835 --> 00:19:02,355
before being deep-fried
for 15 minutes.
421
00:19:02,355 --> 00:19:05,555
In India, they are a cheap
street food snack -
422
00:19:05,555 --> 00:19:07,635
quick, hot and delicious -
423
00:19:07,635 --> 00:19:10,755
and here at Anand's,
they are just 60p each.
424
00:19:12,235 --> 00:19:14,915
Know what the best bit is?
I'll show you. Hold on.
425
00:19:14,915 --> 00:19:19,355
Keep the end...and you're going to
hate me for this, because....
426
00:19:21,955 --> 00:19:24,195
Ah, look at you!
427
00:19:24,195 --> 00:19:28,675
And you were telling me at Bettys
that I was not sophisticated enough!
428
00:19:28,675 --> 00:19:30,075
And look at you!
429
00:19:30,075 --> 00:19:32,795
Nadiya the hypocrite. Yeah! I know!
430
00:19:34,115 --> 00:19:36,795
I'm sorry. It's really
good when you drop it in.
431
00:19:38,595 --> 00:19:43,075
Dunking is one thing, but it's
what you dunk into that's important,
432
00:19:43,075 --> 00:19:47,755
and in Nadiya's case,
it's this distinctive masala chai.
433
00:19:47,755 --> 00:19:50,395
The chai's delicious. Everyone
has their own version of a chai,
434
00:19:50,395 --> 00:19:53,435
every family. And, like,
normally you'd have cinnamon,
435
00:19:53,435 --> 00:19:57,235
a little bit of bay leaf,
some cardamom and lots of milk.
436
00:19:57,235 --> 00:20:00,355
You start it off in the morning
and it sits on the stove
437
00:20:00,355 --> 00:20:03,155
and you just drink it through the
day, and the smells in the house,
438
00:20:03,155 --> 00:20:06,235
like, when you're making the chai...
Wow. Nadiya, please, enough chat.
439
00:20:06,235 --> 00:20:09,075
I want to eat the chaat.
Oh, I like that. Allez.
440
00:20:09,075 --> 00:20:11,275
OK, and the trick is to get,
like, everything.
441
00:20:11,275 --> 00:20:12,515
Like, get it all in one spoon.
442
00:20:13,915 --> 00:20:16,995
The history of chaat
can trace its roots back
443
00:20:16,995 --> 00:20:20,235
to the 16th century.
Mmm!
444
00:20:20,235 --> 00:20:22,675
The word itself means
"to lick your fingers",
445
00:20:22,675 --> 00:20:25,115
something which
I'm tempted to do right now.
446
00:20:25,115 --> 00:20:26,355
This is delicious.
447
00:20:26,355 --> 00:20:28,675
Bombay mix, raw onions, coriander.
448
00:20:28,675 --> 00:20:33,035
It is like, boom! Oh, it's
the best thing ever, ever, ever!
449
00:20:33,035 --> 00:20:36,675
The heat is building up in my mouth,
just building up. Your face!
450
00:20:36,675 --> 00:20:39,115
As you were speaking,
the heat is going up to my brains!
451
00:20:39,115 --> 00:20:42,355
It's like, you know, like there's
a little bit of everything happening
452
00:20:42,355 --> 00:20:44,995
in your mouth. And that's what
I love about these combinations.
453
00:20:44,995 --> 00:20:47,835
You literally get everything
in one mouthful every single time.
454
00:20:47,835 --> 00:20:49,915
Like, the saddest thing for me is,
I get to a point
455
00:20:49,915 --> 00:20:51,315
where I know it's going to end.
456
00:20:51,315 --> 00:20:53,155
You know, when you know
it's going to end?
457
00:20:53,155 --> 00:20:54,595
Everything ends at the end, Nadiya.
458
00:20:54,595 --> 00:20:56,595
Shall we get the bill? Mm.
459
00:20:56,595 --> 00:20:58,435
This is the bit that's
going to shock you.
460
00:20:59,875 --> 00:21:01,315
So what's the damage?
461
00:21:02,515 --> 00:21:05,155
I mean, is there a mistake here?
462
00:21:05,155 --> 00:21:07,995
There is no mistake.
463
00:21:07,995 --> 00:21:09,555
But it's £11.40!
464
00:21:09,555 --> 00:21:11,675
Exactly! Like, how amazing is that?
465
00:21:11,675 --> 00:21:13,475
Like, it's so cheap.
466
00:21:13,475 --> 00:21:14,875
Isn't that wonderful?
467
00:21:14,875 --> 00:21:17,595
But the point is, it's delicious!
Exactly.
468
00:21:17,595 --> 00:21:19,155
It's all beautiful ingredients.
469
00:21:19,155 --> 00:21:22,515
It's made fresh every day.
The flavour is incredible.
470
00:21:22,515 --> 00:21:25,035
Nadiya, I am so grateful
that you've taken me here.
471
00:21:25,035 --> 00:21:27,675
I would have never come here
by myself, and I've had
472
00:21:27,675 --> 00:21:30,755
such a great experience. Thank you.
You're very welcome. Shall we go?
473
00:21:30,755 --> 00:21:32,635
Yeah, let's go. That was amazing.
474
00:21:32,635 --> 00:21:35,195
Thank you very much!
Thank you! Bye-bye.
475
00:21:35,195 --> 00:21:36,635
Oh, I'm so glad you enjoyed it.
476
00:21:37,875 --> 00:21:42,355
Not only is Anand's value for money,
it has lifted a simple snack
477
00:21:42,355 --> 00:21:45,755
to the highest level,
using basic ingredients
478
00:21:45,755 --> 00:21:49,955
cooked to perfection,
and is a truly special place to eat.
479
00:21:49,955 --> 00:21:52,035
I can see why Nadiya loves it.
480
00:21:58,235 --> 00:22:01,395
In Harrogate,
elevating humble ingredients
481
00:22:01,395 --> 00:22:03,835
is what Bettys have built
their brand on.
482
00:22:03,835 --> 00:22:06,675
Their six tearooms across the county
483
00:22:06,675 --> 00:22:09,515
serve over two million
customers a year.
484
00:22:09,515 --> 00:22:13,355
They are producing their
signature bakes on a vast scale.
485
00:22:13,355 --> 00:22:16,355
We're back to discover
what goes on in their bakery.
486
00:22:16,355 --> 00:22:19,275
I can't take you seriously
with that thing on your face!
487
00:22:19,275 --> 00:22:21,875
Come on. Look at this!
488
00:22:21,875 --> 00:22:24,755
I mean, look at the scale of this.
This is enormous.
489
00:22:24,755 --> 00:22:28,435
I wonder how many fondant fancies
come out of here. A lot!
490
00:22:28,435 --> 00:22:31,275
You wanted to learn how to make
fat rascals, and I want to know
491
00:22:31,275 --> 00:22:33,075
how they make the fondant fancy.
I can't wait.
492
00:22:33,075 --> 00:22:35,715
There are ten
different departments here,
493
00:22:35,715 --> 00:22:41,635
with a total of 129 bakers
working in shifts, 24 hours a day.
494
00:22:41,635 --> 00:22:44,715
I'm joining manager Gemma Pickup
495
00:22:44,715 --> 00:22:48,515
to find out the secret formula
for their fabulous rascals.
496
00:22:48,515 --> 00:22:49,955
Hello! How are you, Gemma?
497
00:22:49,955 --> 00:22:52,195
Tell me, how long have you been
making rascals for?
498
00:22:52,195 --> 00:22:54,355
Me personally, about 18 years.
499
00:22:54,355 --> 00:22:55,715
How did you get into it?
500
00:22:55,715 --> 00:22:58,475
Well, my mum works here.
Before that, my nana worked here.
501
00:22:58,475 --> 00:23:01,115
So it's kind of
a bit of a family tradition, really.
502
00:23:01,115 --> 00:23:04,955
Really?! My two sisters at some
point have worked here, so... OK.
503
00:23:04,955 --> 00:23:08,315
But what I really want to do
is make a rascal at home.
504
00:23:08,315 --> 00:23:10,475
Can you tell me the recipe, please?
505
00:23:10,475 --> 00:23:11,915
Our recipe is top secret.
506
00:23:11,915 --> 00:23:15,155
But I am not going to tell anyone.
No, no, my lips are sealed.
507
00:23:15,155 --> 00:23:18,635
I'll tell you the main
core ingredient. Go on. Love.
508
00:23:18,635 --> 00:23:20,195
HE LAUGHS
509
00:23:20,195 --> 00:23:23,275
I mean, I could have come up
with that myself!
510
00:23:23,275 --> 00:23:25,955
Although Gemma can't share
the exact recipe with me,
511
00:23:25,955 --> 00:23:27,955
she can tell me the ingredients.
512
00:23:27,955 --> 00:23:31,395
First, brown sugar is added
to butter and churned.
513
00:23:31,395 --> 00:23:32,795
Mix that for three minutes.
514
00:23:32,795 --> 00:23:34,435
We don't want them too tough.
515
00:23:34,435 --> 00:23:36,675
So how many rascals
do you make every year?
516
00:23:36,675 --> 00:23:38,995
Of this variety,
what we call the fat rascal,
517
00:23:38,995 --> 00:23:41,195
we make about 14,000 a week.
518
00:23:41,195 --> 00:23:42,395
Wow!
519
00:23:42,395 --> 00:23:46,035
Alongside the fat rascals,
the bakery's churning out
520
00:23:46,035 --> 00:23:49,075
little gooey rascals
and cheeky rascals,
521
00:23:49,075 --> 00:23:52,715
amounting to over a million of
these signature bakes every year.
522
00:23:52,715 --> 00:23:55,755
Tip this in gently so the flour
doesn't go airborne.
523
00:23:55,755 --> 00:23:57,395
So, gently, gently, gently.
524
00:23:57,395 --> 00:24:00,035
So what's the difference
between the fat rascal
525
00:24:00,035 --> 00:24:01,835
and a scone in terms of recipe?
526
00:24:01,835 --> 00:24:05,115
A traditional rascal used to be
all the scraps, all the leftovers.
527
00:24:05,115 --> 00:24:07,515
From the scones? From scones, cakes,
528
00:24:07,515 --> 00:24:09,875
whatever you had
lying around at home.
529
00:24:09,875 --> 00:24:11,515
Fruitcakes, all sorts. Wow!
530
00:24:11,515 --> 00:24:14,435
So is it where the reputation of
a Yorkshireman is coming from?
531
00:24:14,435 --> 00:24:16,915
Definitely. Definitely.
We don't like waste.
532
00:24:16,915 --> 00:24:20,555
The recipe goes back to
the 15th century and is based on
533
00:24:20,555 --> 00:24:22,355
the Yorkshire turf bun,
534
00:24:22,355 --> 00:24:25,835
so called because they were often
baked over a turf fire
535
00:24:25,835 --> 00:24:27,395
at the end of the cooking day.
536
00:24:27,395 --> 00:24:30,155
So how many eggs
have you got in there? A lot.
537
00:24:30,155 --> 00:24:34,235
Each batch can make
up to 435 rascals,
538
00:24:34,235 --> 00:24:37,835
and at £3.95 each,
there's a lot of profit gone
539
00:24:37,835 --> 00:24:40,035
if you don't get
this part of the process right.
540
00:24:40,035 --> 00:24:42,715
You really have to think about
what you're doing.
541
00:24:42,715 --> 00:24:45,755
As much as this is automated,
there is the touch,
542
00:24:45,755 --> 00:24:47,155
the feeling. Correct.
543
00:24:47,155 --> 00:24:50,195
How do you make sure that
your staff know what to do?
544
00:24:50,195 --> 00:24:51,435
I'll do it first,
545
00:24:51,435 --> 00:24:53,955
we'll do it together,
then you'll do it on your own.
546
00:24:55,475 --> 00:24:58,395
When the dough is perfect,
it's taken out of the mixer
547
00:24:58,395 --> 00:25:01,995
and transferred to its
bigger brother, the rascalator.
548
00:25:03,355 --> 00:25:07,715
18 months ago, everybody was
handballing all the rascals. Oh!
549
00:25:07,715 --> 00:25:10,075
A million of them every year.
Yep. Wow.
550
00:25:10,075 --> 00:25:11,515
So this is a game-changer for you?
551
00:25:11,515 --> 00:25:12,955
Oh, without a doubt.
552
00:25:12,955 --> 00:25:16,795
The rascalator weighs out the dough
and forms the round shape,
553
00:25:16,795 --> 00:25:20,475
producing 480 rascals
every ten minutes.
554
00:25:20,475 --> 00:25:24,115
Then, that all-important
almond and cherry face is put on
555
00:25:24,115 --> 00:25:27,155
in the old-fashioned way, by hand.
556
00:25:27,155 --> 00:25:28,995
Can I just make them smile?
557
00:25:28,995 --> 00:25:30,715
Well, they're rascals!
We want them happy.
558
00:25:30,715 --> 00:25:32,035
We want them cheeky. Look!
559
00:25:32,035 --> 00:25:34,915
That's what makes us unique.
That's what makes it craft.
560
00:25:34,915 --> 00:25:36,635
Every single one has character.
561
00:25:36,635 --> 00:25:39,355
While I get on with making faces,
562
00:25:39,355 --> 00:25:43,995
Nadiya has joined up with product
development manager Lisa Bennison
563
00:25:43,995 --> 00:25:46,355
to find out the secret
behind the bakery's
564
00:25:46,355 --> 00:25:48,395
delectable fondant fancies.
565
00:25:48,395 --> 00:25:51,395
Fondant fancies can be really,
really sweet, but these are not.
566
00:25:51,395 --> 00:25:53,795
They're just
the perfect amount of sweetness.
567
00:25:53,795 --> 00:25:55,275
How do you do that?
568
00:25:55,275 --> 00:25:58,035
So we try to make sure that
each layer has a job to do,
569
00:25:58,035 --> 00:26:00,395
and it's almost a marriage
of the other flavours.
570
00:26:00,395 --> 00:26:03,155
So, with this one, we have
a white chocolate layer,
571
00:26:03,155 --> 00:26:04,955
which is a Swiss white chocolate,
572
00:26:04,955 --> 00:26:08,195
and it has a slight white peppery
flavour profile for me.
573
00:26:08,195 --> 00:26:10,595
And then you've got the sponge.
In the middle,
574
00:26:10,595 --> 00:26:13,155
we have a beautiful
raspberry preserve,
575
00:26:13,155 --> 00:26:16,835
and we chose raspberry,
slight sour kind of tone to it.
576
00:26:16,835 --> 00:26:19,195
If we did strawberry jam,
we've got sweetness
577
00:26:19,195 --> 00:26:20,795
and sweetness and sweetness.
578
00:26:20,795 --> 00:26:24,035
OK. Next thing, we have our vanilla
buttercream. But a pinch of salt.
579
00:26:24,035 --> 00:26:26,675
So, again, we're trying to
counteract that sweetness
580
00:26:26,675 --> 00:26:28,235
in all of those layers.
581
00:26:28,235 --> 00:26:30,195
And then the very last layer
there on the top,
582
00:26:30,195 --> 00:26:33,355
we have our almond marzipan.
583
00:26:33,355 --> 00:26:34,675
That is such a surprise.
584
00:26:34,675 --> 00:26:37,195
That hint of that marzipan
right at the end. It's like,
585
00:26:37,195 --> 00:26:39,915
"Ooh, I did not know
that was happening!" Absolutely.
586
00:26:39,915 --> 00:26:43,475
I feel really privileged to be able
to see a fondant fancy naked,
587
00:26:43,475 --> 00:26:46,355
because very few people get to see
a fondant fancy naked.
588
00:26:46,355 --> 00:26:50,875
Dressing each individual fancy
with its fondant icing coating
589
00:26:50,875 --> 00:26:53,675
is carried out in the enrobing room.
590
00:26:53,675 --> 00:26:55,755
Oh, look at that!
591
00:26:55,755 --> 00:26:57,515
Fondant fancies are getting dressed.
592
00:26:58,995 --> 00:27:04,075
Around 640,000 fancies
are made here every year.
593
00:27:05,795 --> 00:27:07,955
Whenever I've made a fondant fancy,
594
00:27:07,955 --> 00:27:10,635
the icing usually gets
mixed with the crumb.
595
00:27:10,635 --> 00:27:14,435
How can I achieve that really clean
finish with a really clean icing?
596
00:27:14,435 --> 00:27:16,355
So we'd make the whole cake,
chill it down,
597
00:27:16,355 --> 00:27:18,675
so it's really, really cold,
so then you can cut it... Yeah.
598
00:27:18,675 --> 00:27:20,915
..and then when you've got the
individual portions,
599
00:27:20,915 --> 00:27:25,075
you freeze those. So you get
that solid, clean edge. Yeah.
600
00:27:25,075 --> 00:27:27,835
And then when you hand-dip them
in your fondant, they don't kind of
601
00:27:27,835 --> 00:27:30,275
fall apart and all your crumb
doesn't fall into your fondant.
602
00:27:30,275 --> 00:27:32,115
Like, that's such a good tip! Yeah.
603
00:27:32,115 --> 00:27:33,555
It makes all the difference.
604
00:27:33,555 --> 00:27:36,155
Each fancy is decorated by hand.
605
00:27:36,155 --> 00:27:40,315
Not only do the bakers here fill
the trolleys at Bettys Tea Rooms
606
00:27:40,315 --> 00:27:45,035
across Yorkshire, but their sweet
treats are exported to 44 countries
607
00:27:45,035 --> 00:27:46,675
around the globe.
608
00:27:46,675 --> 00:27:48,555
Standards are incredibly important,
609
00:27:48,555 --> 00:27:51,955
and to maintain them
is a job in its own right.
610
00:27:51,955 --> 00:27:53,755
How long have you been
working here, Lisa?
611
00:27:53,755 --> 00:27:56,835
I've been working for Bettys
for 33 years.
612
00:27:56,835 --> 00:27:58,435
Wow. And still smiling. Love it.
613
00:27:58,435 --> 00:28:01,635
Still love it. Guys, how long have
you guys been working here?
614
00:28:01,635 --> 00:28:02,955
30 years on Thursday.
615
00:28:02,955 --> 00:28:04,515
30 years? Yeah.
616
00:28:04,515 --> 00:28:05,915
Wow!
617
00:28:05,915 --> 00:28:08,275
You actually want to be here.
We actually want to be here.
618
00:28:08,275 --> 00:28:10,915
You're not locked in, there's
no contract saying you have to do
619
00:28:10,915 --> 00:28:13,795
three decades? No, no. You actually
quite like it here! We love it.
620
00:28:13,795 --> 00:28:16,995
That shows in your baking,
in what you produce
621
00:28:16,995 --> 00:28:20,035
time and time again, and maybe
that's why it's lasted 100 years.
622
00:28:20,035 --> 00:28:21,595
We'd like to think so. Yeah.
623
00:28:24,235 --> 00:28:27,715
Ah, Nadiya. Ah, you've got him
hard at work! Always!
624
00:28:27,715 --> 00:28:30,355
As soon as you come through the
front door, you're working for me.
625
00:28:30,355 --> 00:28:32,235
It's the quietest he's been all day.
626
00:28:32,235 --> 00:28:34,475
It's quite difficult
to keep up the pace
627
00:28:34,475 --> 00:28:36,875
that these two are having. Yeah.
628
00:28:36,875 --> 00:28:39,755
I'm doing my best.
When I think about how popular
629
00:28:39,755 --> 00:28:43,275
fat rascals are and how many
are eaten and how many go through
630
00:28:43,275 --> 00:28:45,595
the tea room and how many
I've bought online,
631
00:28:45,595 --> 00:28:48,675
I have this image that
they're made through a machine.
632
00:28:48,675 --> 00:28:52,995
But... I mean, the dough
comes out of the machine. Yep.
633
00:28:52,995 --> 00:28:57,635
But you are stood here
hand-decorating every single one.
634
00:28:57,635 --> 00:29:00,555
Indeed. You guys are like
superheroes in this factory.
635
00:29:00,555 --> 00:29:03,515
It really is staggering
what you can achieve. Being able
636
00:29:03,515 --> 00:29:05,515
to do something
at an industrial level
637
00:29:05,515 --> 00:29:07,275
and still retain that craftsmanship.
638
00:29:07,275 --> 00:29:09,395
That's just, like...
Very few people can do that,
639
00:29:09,395 --> 00:29:10,835
and you guys have nailed that.
640
00:29:12,395 --> 00:29:14,915
Everything here
revolves around tea,
641
00:29:14,915 --> 00:29:17,715
and the team serve
over 1,000 cups a week.
642
00:29:17,715 --> 00:29:21,395
The hundreds of pieces of
signature silver are polished
643
00:29:21,395 --> 00:29:23,595
by just one member of staff,
644
00:29:23,595 --> 00:29:26,435
and the process takes an entire day.
645
00:29:26,435 --> 00:29:28,275
On shift is waitress Joanne,
646
00:29:28,275 --> 00:29:30,355
and Nadiya's getting stuck in, too.
647
00:29:32,035 --> 00:29:34,635
This is a lot of silver.
A lot, yeah.
648
00:29:34,635 --> 00:29:35,955
There's a lot in the building.
649
00:29:35,955 --> 00:29:37,275
I have never done this before.
650
00:29:37,275 --> 00:29:39,835
I don't own any silver.
Not like this, no, no.
651
00:29:39,835 --> 00:29:41,515
So you just use this stuff? Yeah.
652
00:29:41,515 --> 00:29:44,435
Just very gently. You don't
have to scrub, it just foams up.
653
00:29:44,435 --> 00:29:47,675
And just buff it up,
and then that all gets rinsed off
654
00:29:47,675 --> 00:29:49,595
and it comes up sparkling.
655
00:29:49,595 --> 00:29:52,875
Do you really still enjoy it, even
after doing hundreds of teapots?
656
00:29:52,875 --> 00:29:55,315
Yeah, it's nice seeing it
go out on the table all sparkly.
657
00:29:55,315 --> 00:29:56,755
OK, so that's the satisfying bit?
658
00:29:56,755 --> 00:29:59,155
That's the satisfying bit,
yes, definitely
659
00:29:59,155 --> 00:30:03,875
It takes three hours to polish
the 300 teapots for Harrogate.
660
00:30:03,875 --> 00:30:07,835
Then, there's just the little matter
of 1,200 pieces of silverware
661
00:30:07,835 --> 00:30:10,915
that make up the rest of
the tea service.
662
00:30:10,915 --> 00:30:12,555
So, Joanne, how long
have you worked here?
663
00:30:12,555 --> 00:30:14,315
I've been here about 20 years now.
664
00:30:14,315 --> 00:30:18,035
You must have seen generations
of people come through this door.
665
00:30:18,035 --> 00:30:19,955
People that are, sort of,
in their 90s
666
00:30:19,955 --> 00:30:21,595
can celebrate their 90th birthday,
667
00:30:21,595 --> 00:30:23,955
they've celebrated
coming here as a child.
668
00:30:23,955 --> 00:30:27,435
If a 90-year-old is coming in
for her birthday
669
00:30:27,435 --> 00:30:31,915
and it feels exactly the same
as it did when she was 14 or 15,
670
00:30:31,915 --> 00:30:33,515
it's working. Exactly.
671
00:30:33,515 --> 00:30:36,515
It should be exactly the same
every time for every customer.
672
00:30:36,515 --> 00:30:40,035
See, the hope is that,
one day, I'll be a granny,
673
00:30:40,035 --> 00:30:43,435
and then my kids and their kids,
we'll all come together.
674
00:30:43,435 --> 00:30:45,475
So, you know, I could
still be coming. Absolutely.
675
00:30:45,475 --> 00:30:49,155
You'll still have your shiny teapots
and your fondant fancies. Yes!
676
00:30:49,155 --> 00:30:51,875
Now, hours after
cleaning and polishing,
677
00:30:51,875 --> 00:30:53,995
I actually get
what the fuss is all about. Yes.
678
00:30:53,995 --> 00:30:56,795
Look how shiny and beautiful
that is.
679
00:30:56,795 --> 00:30:59,875
And I can see why you take pride
in taking the time
680
00:30:59,875 --> 00:31:02,555
to polish these beautiful teapots.
681
00:31:02,555 --> 00:31:05,155
It's a lot of hard work,
but it's definitely worth it,
682
00:31:05,155 --> 00:31:07,195
and makes all the difference.
Oh, yes.
683
00:31:07,195 --> 00:31:10,275
The devil's in the detail, and
it's that attention to small things
684
00:31:10,275 --> 00:31:13,195
that adds so much
to the big picture here.
685
00:31:13,195 --> 00:31:16,155
I am so thankful that
you've taken me to Bettys.
686
00:31:16,155 --> 00:31:17,595
I never knew it existed.
687
00:31:17,595 --> 00:31:19,875
And here we are
in the middle of Yorkshire,
688
00:31:19,875 --> 00:31:22,435
and this place has such heritage.
689
00:31:22,435 --> 00:31:26,115
It's been here 101 years.
It survived two world wars.
690
00:31:26,115 --> 00:31:28,875
That in itself says everything.
691
00:31:28,875 --> 00:31:30,755
You know, what
I'm very impressed with
692
00:31:30,755 --> 00:31:32,995
is the quality, the consistency.
693
00:31:32,995 --> 00:31:35,675
I mean, clearly, everybody here
694
00:31:35,675 --> 00:31:37,915
lives and breathes
the values of Bettys,
695
00:31:37,915 --> 00:31:40,955
and that I find
completely extraordinary.
696
00:31:42,555 --> 00:31:45,715
Bettys is truly a mainstay
on the county's food map,
697
00:31:45,715 --> 00:31:48,435
offering tradition and luxury
in equal measure.
698
00:31:55,835 --> 00:31:57,875
But Yorkshire's food scene
699
00:31:57,875 --> 00:32:01,235
is as extensive as
its spectacular landscapes.
700
00:32:01,235 --> 00:32:04,715
Today, Nadiya's taking me
60 miles north-east
701
00:32:04,715 --> 00:32:06,675
to the county's rugged coastline
702
00:32:06,675 --> 00:32:09,995
in search of one of her favourite
things to eat - seafood.
703
00:32:10,995 --> 00:32:15,675
Look how pretty this is.
It is something special, right?
704
00:32:15,675 --> 00:32:18,315
This is so wild.
I mean, it's completely unspoiled.
705
00:32:18,315 --> 00:32:21,755
And that's why
we have to go on a road trip!
706
00:32:21,755 --> 00:32:23,995
How else are we going
to see beautiful Yorkshire?
707
00:32:23,995 --> 00:32:26,235
So, Nadiya, where are we going?
708
00:32:26,235 --> 00:32:28,035
I am taking you to the coastline.
709
00:32:28,035 --> 00:32:29,675
What lots of people don't know
710
00:32:29,675 --> 00:32:32,715
is that Yorkshire has
an amazing fishing industry,
711
00:32:32,715 --> 00:32:36,115
and we are going to eat
some of the most amazing seafood.
712
00:32:36,115 --> 00:32:37,795
I love seafood. So do I.
713
00:32:39,435 --> 00:32:43,315
The Yorkshire coastline
really is something to behold.
714
00:32:43,315 --> 00:32:46,115
It stretches over 90 miles,
715
00:32:46,115 --> 00:32:50,675
and is home to the largest brown
crab and lobster fishery in Europe.
716
00:32:52,475 --> 00:32:57,315
Nadiya is taking me to the Victorian
seaside town of Saltburn-by-the-Sea
717
00:32:57,315 --> 00:32:59,755
on the edge of the Yorkshire moors.
718
00:33:02,275 --> 00:33:04,675
How gorgeous is this, Fred?
719
00:33:04,675 --> 00:33:06,235
It's just stunning.
720
00:33:06,235 --> 00:33:10,315
Look! Look at the chap there with
his parachute. Hello up there!
721
00:33:10,315 --> 00:33:12,555
Have fun! Woo!
722
00:33:12,555 --> 00:33:14,835
This is really special, this place,
because, for me,
723
00:33:14,835 --> 00:33:17,755
when I lived in Yorkshire,
we'd always go to Scarborough
724
00:33:17,755 --> 00:33:19,235
or Filey or Whitby.
725
00:33:19,235 --> 00:33:22,475
But there's something
very unspoilt about this beach,
726
00:33:22,475 --> 00:33:26,155
and I think lots of people
don't know that Saltburn is here.
727
00:33:26,155 --> 00:33:27,635
But what a hidden gem,
728
00:33:27,635 --> 00:33:30,635
and we can't come here
and not eat something delicious,
729
00:33:30,635 --> 00:33:32,315
straight out of the water.
730
00:33:32,315 --> 00:33:34,355
And nestled right there
in the cliff-side
731
00:33:34,355 --> 00:33:36,915
is this beautiful restaurant.
732
00:33:36,915 --> 00:33:41,195
When I think of seafood, I think
of Cornwall, Devon, Scotland,
733
00:33:41,195 --> 00:33:43,195
but not Yorkshire.
734
00:33:43,195 --> 00:33:44,355
Not a pie in sight.
735
00:33:44,355 --> 00:33:46,955
Maybe a fish pie? Maybe.
Oh-la-la.
736
00:33:46,955 --> 00:33:49,715
All right, shall we go and eat?
Let's go. OK, let's go.
737
00:33:53,555 --> 00:33:56,195
In 2007, local boy Glen Pearson
738
00:33:56,195 --> 00:33:59,475
set up an award-winning
fish and chip shop
739
00:33:59,475 --> 00:34:01,915
in prime position on the seafront.
740
00:34:01,915 --> 00:34:05,275
It did so well,
he opened a restaurant upstairs
741
00:34:05,275 --> 00:34:07,235
serving his staple dish,
742
00:34:07,235 --> 00:34:10,115
and specialising in local seafood
at an affordable price.
743
00:34:10,115 --> 00:34:14,715
Now a destination restaurant,
people travel for miles to eat here.
744
00:34:16,435 --> 00:34:20,115
We've got some gorgeous food to eat!
Come on! I'm coming! Come on!
745
00:34:23,235 --> 00:34:24,835
I hope you're hungry. I can't wait.
746
00:34:24,835 --> 00:34:26,675
Wait till you see
what it's like inside.
747
00:34:26,675 --> 00:34:28,075
I'm so hungry!
748
00:34:30,915 --> 00:34:33,875
What a view. Isn't this
what they call a picture window?
749
00:34:33,875 --> 00:34:37,635
It is. I'm feeling so relaxed
and, you know, from outside,
750
00:34:37,635 --> 00:34:40,515
you wouldn't think that
this place is like that.
751
00:34:40,515 --> 00:34:43,515
There's something quite special
about this place because, like, it's
752
00:34:43,515 --> 00:34:45,755
just even the way it's decorated,
like, it's just...
753
00:34:45,755 --> 00:34:48,035
I was just going to say that.
I love the decor, you know.
754
00:34:48,035 --> 00:34:50,195
I mean, it makes you feel like
you are near the sea.
755
00:34:50,195 --> 00:34:53,115
You've got the boats there, you've
got these beautiful paintings there.
756
00:34:53,115 --> 00:34:56,195
It's nautical without going
over-the-top, right? Perfect.
757
00:34:56,195 --> 00:34:57,835
Hello, how are you?
How are you today?
758
00:34:57,835 --> 00:35:00,755
Let me give you some menus. Thank
you very much. Thank you very much.
759
00:35:00,755 --> 00:35:02,555
You know, one thing
that's very impressive
760
00:35:02,555 --> 00:35:06,115
is the way they are very friendly
here, very down-to-earth,
761
00:35:06,115 --> 00:35:08,715
and I think that's what makes
the atmosphere of a restaurant.
762
00:35:08,715 --> 00:35:11,555
I think that's what you'll find
all through Yorkshire, you know.
763
00:35:11,555 --> 00:35:13,835
Everybody is very friendly up here
in Yorkshire.
764
00:35:13,835 --> 00:35:17,675
Making everyone feel welcome
is of the utmost importance
765
00:35:17,675 --> 00:35:21,395
in a restaurant that can serve
up to 800 covers a day.
766
00:35:21,395 --> 00:35:25,195
What are we going to have?
OK, let's have a read.
767
00:35:26,155 --> 00:35:28,035
We're going to eat the best seafood,
768
00:35:28,035 --> 00:35:30,355
like, the freshest crab
that's right out of the sea.
769
00:35:30,355 --> 00:35:31,875
Home-made brioche with crab
770
00:35:31,875 --> 00:35:34,515
and lemon aioli,
fancy salad and skinny fries.
771
00:35:34,515 --> 00:35:35,755
That sounds amazing.
772
00:35:37,155 --> 00:35:41,035
I promised Fred the best local crab,
straight out of the water.
773
00:35:41,035 --> 00:35:42,875
Well, you've come to
the right place.
774
00:35:42,875 --> 00:35:46,515
We actually have our own fisherman.
He brings in the local crabs.
775
00:35:46,515 --> 00:35:48,355
I think we might have got it right.
776
00:35:48,355 --> 00:35:50,995
And then we'll have two crabs,
actually. No problem. Thank you.
777
00:35:53,795 --> 00:35:57,395
Look! Yorkshire love. I mean,
this is so romantic, this place.
778
00:35:57,395 --> 00:35:59,835
Look at that,
these two lovers on a bench.
779
00:36:01,795 --> 00:36:03,435
Oh, they hear us!
780
00:36:05,195 --> 00:36:07,235
Good man! C'est l'amour!
781
00:36:07,235 --> 00:36:09,355
This is Yorkshire!
782
00:36:09,355 --> 00:36:11,515
I told you - the Yorkshire men!
783
00:36:12,915 --> 00:36:15,275
Maybe he's not from Yorkshire.
He has to be.
784
00:36:15,275 --> 00:36:17,195
FRED CHUCKLES
785
00:36:20,035 --> 00:36:23,915
Aha! OK, so we have
the best Saltburn crab... Ooh.
786
00:36:23,915 --> 00:36:27,555
That.. ..brioche.
Oh! That looks good, right?
787
00:36:27,555 --> 00:36:30,075
Is it always decorated like this?
Always.
788
00:36:30,075 --> 00:36:32,355
So pretty. When I saw the flowers,
789
00:36:32,355 --> 00:36:34,235
I thought they'd put them on
just for you.
790
00:36:34,235 --> 00:36:36,075
No, that's for you, too.
It's for everybody.
791
00:36:37,515 --> 00:36:40,755
Our home-made brioches
are brimming with crab,
792
00:36:40,755 --> 00:36:42,795
accented with
a lemon aioli dressing.
793
00:36:42,795 --> 00:36:47,035
Crisp, skinny French fries,
and a fresh green salad
794
00:36:47,035 --> 00:36:51,715
are all that's needed to accompany
this decadent seafood speciality.
795
00:36:51,715 --> 00:36:55,595
Oh, yeah. Mm-mm-mm-mm!
796
00:36:55,595 --> 00:36:56,795
Oh!
797
00:36:56,795 --> 00:37:00,035
The crab - it is so simply dressed.
798
00:37:00,035 --> 00:37:02,475
You don't need to do anything
with a crab like that.
799
00:37:02,475 --> 00:37:04,115
You just eat it as it is.
800
00:37:04,115 --> 00:37:05,955
When it's as fresh as that,
801
00:37:05,955 --> 00:37:08,075
you can see there's a little bit
of brown meat in there,
802
00:37:08,075 --> 00:37:09,995
and you can really taste the crab.
803
00:37:09,995 --> 00:37:12,435
Look at how much crab there is here.
804
00:37:12,435 --> 00:37:13,795
It's packed.
805
00:37:13,795 --> 00:37:16,315
And the brioche is so fresh.
806
00:37:16,315 --> 00:37:20,955
It's so buttery and soft,
and just very slightly sweet. Mm.
807
00:37:20,955 --> 00:37:22,195
That brioche reminds me
808
00:37:22,195 --> 00:37:25,275
of the kind of brioche that I used
to buy in France, at my parents'.
809
00:37:25,275 --> 00:37:27,395
Really? Yeah. This is just as good.
810
00:37:27,395 --> 00:37:30,715
And the mayonnaise,
just a little sprinkling of chives,
811
00:37:30,715 --> 00:37:33,755
it's just so light. It must be
home-made, right? Of course.
812
00:37:33,755 --> 00:37:35,635
I mean, this is proper luxury.
813
00:37:35,635 --> 00:37:37,195
This is a noble produce.
814
00:37:37,195 --> 00:37:38,635
This is as good as it gets.
815
00:37:38,635 --> 00:37:43,995
And at £14.95 for a crab brioche
and fries, it's good value, too.
816
00:37:43,995 --> 00:37:45,635
I love bringing my kids
to the beach,
817
00:37:45,635 --> 00:37:48,595
but sometimes I just want
to go somewhere nice...
818
00:37:48,595 --> 00:37:53,275
that isn't stuffy... Right. ..and
this is like that bit in between.
819
00:37:53,275 --> 00:37:56,515
And Glen's a brave guy
to take that fish and chip shop
820
00:37:56,515 --> 00:37:58,755
and to do something
entirely different, right?
821
00:37:58,755 --> 00:38:01,635
Yeah. Because he's elevating
the standards
822
00:38:01,635 --> 00:38:05,035
and he's creating a name for
himself, but not only for himself,
823
00:38:05,035 --> 00:38:06,755
for the whole of the region.
824
00:38:06,755 --> 00:38:10,955
I've got to say, I really want
to know how he dresses that crab
825
00:38:10,955 --> 00:38:12,475
and how he makes that brioche.
826
00:38:12,475 --> 00:38:14,595
I just... I'd love to see
how he does that.
827
00:38:14,595 --> 00:38:16,715
I tell you what,
this is such a simple recipe,
828
00:38:16,715 --> 00:38:18,275
but you've got to know how to do it,
829
00:38:18,275 --> 00:38:21,475
because if you don't know how
to do it, you will never be able
830
00:38:21,475 --> 00:38:24,635
to produce such a delicious
plate of food. Yeah.
831
00:38:24,635 --> 00:38:28,395
To find out how The Seaview
makes their delicious crab brioche,
832
00:38:28,395 --> 00:38:31,075
Nadiya heads to the kitchen
to meet head chef Matthew.
833
00:38:32,275 --> 00:38:35,155
Look at that. This crab is enormous!
Matt, these are huge.
834
00:38:35,155 --> 00:38:36,515
SHELLS CRACKING
835
00:38:36,515 --> 00:38:38,155
Oh, my goodness,
that cracking sound!
836
00:38:38,155 --> 00:38:39,635
Yeah. Wow!
837
00:38:39,635 --> 00:38:42,875
I mean, look at the size. I need
both hands. That's big, right? Look.
838
00:38:42,875 --> 00:38:46,275
Yeah. That's the big boy,
that's the male, that one.
839
00:38:46,275 --> 00:38:47,515
How can you tell?
840
00:38:47,515 --> 00:38:50,235
So, underneath, on yours, it's
got no hairy bits, kind of thing.
841
00:38:50,235 --> 00:38:53,355
Yeah. So this one I've got
in my hand here is the female,
842
00:38:53,355 --> 00:38:54,715
which is slightly smaller.
843
00:38:54,715 --> 00:38:57,035
Is there a difference in the meat,
then?
844
00:38:57,035 --> 00:38:59,075
The male's got more
white meat in it, basically.
845
00:38:59,075 --> 00:39:02,195
The female's more brown.
I like the brown meat.
846
00:39:02,195 --> 00:39:04,155
The brown meat's very important
as well, though,
847
00:39:04,155 --> 00:39:05,995
because that's where
all the flavour is.
848
00:39:05,995 --> 00:39:08,635
Well, it's confirmed, then -
the female's better, right? Yeah...
849
00:39:08,635 --> 00:39:10,475
THEY LAUGH
Absolutely.
850
00:39:10,475 --> 00:39:13,035
Are you going to show me how
to do this? Yes... Pull it apart?
851
00:39:13,035 --> 00:39:15,115
Pull that apart, and it should
just come off like that.
852
00:39:15,115 --> 00:39:16,355
Just get your spoon,
853
00:39:16,355 --> 00:39:18,355
and it'll literally go in it,
go in the head,
854
00:39:18,355 --> 00:39:22,235
and you should be able to
pull all the meat out of it.
855
00:39:22,235 --> 00:39:24,555
Oh, my goodness, that is packed!
856
00:39:24,555 --> 00:39:26,915
It's, like, never-ending. Yeah.
857
00:39:26,915 --> 00:39:29,955
So, where does this crab come from?
858
00:39:29,955 --> 00:39:32,395
Just out there. We ring Doug,
he rings his mate John,
859
00:39:32,395 --> 00:39:34,515
and then he gets it to us.
I love that!
860
00:39:34,515 --> 00:39:36,235
It comes in this massive bucket.
861
00:39:36,235 --> 00:39:38,995
We cook them off,
on the same day.
862
00:39:38,995 --> 00:39:41,515
Like, this is when you know
you're in Yorkshire, right?
863
00:39:41,515 --> 00:39:43,435
Saying, "I've got my mate John..."
Yeah.
864
00:39:43,435 --> 00:39:46,075
"..and he goes out, and
he gets my crab, and he comes in,"
865
00:39:46,075 --> 00:39:48,435
and that's it. No middleman.
866
00:39:48,435 --> 00:39:49,955
Once the shell is emptied,
867
00:39:49,955 --> 00:39:52,755
the claws need to be
picked clean by hand as well.
868
00:39:52,755 --> 00:39:56,435
There is no cutting corners. It's
time-consuming and very fiddly.
869
00:39:57,395 --> 00:40:00,035
Now you really do see
why it's value for money.
870
00:40:00,035 --> 00:40:02,435
Unless you've dressed a crab
or taken the meat out of a crab,
871
00:40:02,435 --> 00:40:05,715
you don't really realise
how much effort it is. No.
872
00:40:06,915 --> 00:40:08,675
So we need to get
the brioche in the oven.
873
00:40:08,675 --> 00:40:10,755
You know, what really surprises me
874
00:40:10,755 --> 00:40:14,035
is the fact that you make
the brioche by hand.
875
00:40:14,035 --> 00:40:15,235
I mean, that's a lot of work.
876
00:40:15,235 --> 00:40:17,515
Brioche is one of
the hardest doughs to get right.
877
00:40:17,515 --> 00:40:19,835
Yeah. So what we'll do is
we'll prove it overnight
878
00:40:19,835 --> 00:40:21,755
and then knock it back
in the morning.
879
00:40:21,755 --> 00:40:24,115
Prove it again under the lights
for about 30, 40 minutes,
880
00:40:24,115 --> 00:40:25,555
and then bake them.
881
00:40:25,555 --> 00:40:27,235
I applaud your dedication. Yeah.
882
00:40:27,235 --> 00:40:29,515
The fact that you're making it
from scratch
883
00:40:29,515 --> 00:40:31,115
just shows how much you care.
884
00:40:31,115 --> 00:40:33,115
Right. I'll get that in there.
885
00:40:33,115 --> 00:40:35,555
We've picked the crab,
the brioche is done,
886
00:40:35,555 --> 00:40:37,395
now on to that delicious filling.
887
00:40:37,395 --> 00:40:38,995
So, how do you put this together?
888
00:40:38,995 --> 00:40:41,275
Yes, so if you can just chop
some chives for us, please,
889
00:40:41,275 --> 00:40:42,915
and we'll just add that
into this crab mix.
890
00:40:42,915 --> 00:40:44,515
And what's going into the crab mix?
891
00:40:44,515 --> 00:40:46,955
Yes, so we've got the white crab,
the brown crab,
892
00:40:46,955 --> 00:40:49,835
and then it's just some home-made
mayonnaise that I made this morning,
893
00:40:49,835 --> 00:40:52,595
which is white wine vinegar,
egg yolk, vegetable oil,
894
00:40:52,595 --> 00:40:54,555
salt and lemon juice.
You don't want it too wet
895
00:40:54,555 --> 00:40:57,475
but you just want the crab meat
to bind, basically.
896
00:40:57,475 --> 00:41:01,355
Whatever you're doing, it works,
because it is absolutely delicious.
897
00:41:01,355 --> 00:41:04,435
The chives add a subtle
onion flavour to the dish,
898
00:41:04,435 --> 00:41:07,475
and the secret behind
those delicious brioches
899
00:41:07,475 --> 00:41:11,915
is that they are sauteed in brown
butter before being baked yet again.
900
00:41:11,915 --> 00:41:14,355
Not only is it difficult
and time-consuming
901
00:41:14,355 --> 00:41:16,395
to make brioche from scratch,
902
00:41:16,395 --> 00:41:20,715
you're also baking it and cutting
off the sides and then glazing it.
903
00:41:20,715 --> 00:41:22,955
You are going the whole hog.
904
00:41:22,955 --> 00:41:24,955
For a finishing touch,
905
00:41:24,955 --> 00:41:27,155
the final dish is dressed with
906
00:41:27,155 --> 00:41:29,595
frisee lettuce and viola flowers,
907
00:41:29,595 --> 00:41:32,795
which adds bitterness to
cut through the rich crab meat.
908
00:41:32,795 --> 00:41:35,435
That has to be the prettiest...
That's it.
909
00:41:35,435 --> 00:41:37,315
..crab roll I've ever seen.
910
00:41:37,315 --> 00:41:39,555
And, I mean, talk about
respecting your crab
911
00:41:39,555 --> 00:41:42,195
and then dressing it up like this,
is gorgeous.
912
00:41:42,195 --> 00:41:44,595
That beats a soggy crab sandwich
any day.
913
00:41:44,595 --> 00:41:46,035
That's for sure!
914
00:41:46,035 --> 00:41:49,755
But how is it that
this premium Yorkshire product
915
00:41:49,755 --> 00:41:52,195
is not as widely known
as it should be?
916
00:41:52,195 --> 00:41:55,075
I join owner Glen, who's just
arrived back at the restaurant
917
00:41:55,075 --> 00:41:58,075
with his latest haul,
to find out more.
918
00:41:58,075 --> 00:42:02,715
Something that puzzles me, I have
never heard of the Yorkshire crab.
919
00:42:02,715 --> 00:42:05,755
And here we are in your restaurant,
having this delicious crab.
920
00:42:05,755 --> 00:42:09,795
It is surprising how many people
just buy it from so far afield
921
00:42:09,795 --> 00:42:13,675
when we've got this abundance of
crab directly behind us there,
922
00:42:13,675 --> 00:42:15,275
just ready to be fished.
923
00:42:15,275 --> 00:42:17,915
But, I mean, it's part of Yorkshire,
it's part of your culture.
924
00:42:17,915 --> 00:42:20,795
So why do you think that people
don't know about Yorkshire crab?
925
00:42:20,795 --> 00:42:23,395
I would just say that, basically,
they've not travelled as far.
926
00:42:23,395 --> 00:42:25,995
Obviously, you've got Cornish crab.
927
00:42:25,995 --> 00:42:28,435
We have such a diverse coastline
in Yorkshire.
928
00:42:28,435 --> 00:42:31,075
Yorkshire is just
a beautiful, beautiful place.
929
00:42:31,075 --> 00:42:35,635
Over 80% of the Yorkshire crab catch
is sold around the world,
930
00:42:35,635 --> 00:42:38,275
but Glen is doing
all he can to make sure
931
00:42:38,275 --> 00:42:41,995
as much of this fantastic
produce stays local,
932
00:42:41,995 --> 00:42:45,155
and he sells up to
2,500 crabs a year.
933
00:42:45,155 --> 00:42:47,595
I think there is a change
in the market.
934
00:42:47,595 --> 00:42:50,235
People are now interested
in that sustainability -
935
00:42:50,235 --> 00:42:52,275
where's it from? Is it local?
936
00:42:52,275 --> 00:42:54,915
So, are you a pioneer here?
I would like to say I am,
937
00:42:54,915 --> 00:42:56,915
but I'm sure some other people
might disagree,
938
00:42:56,915 --> 00:42:59,555
but we obviously recognise
where the best comes from,
939
00:42:59,555 --> 00:43:03,035
and just trying to support
local people, like fishermen.
940
00:43:03,035 --> 00:43:05,355
I think we've got to teach people
about geography. I agree.
941
00:43:05,355 --> 00:43:07,275
Because they obviously
don't know about it.
942
00:43:07,275 --> 00:43:09,115
What an alternative to
fish and chips.
943
00:43:09,115 --> 00:43:10,795
I mean, this is what
I want to have now.
944
00:43:12,555 --> 00:43:16,235
Glen is so modest about the effort
that he's taken to create
945
00:43:16,235 --> 00:43:17,875
this fabulous regional restaurant.
946
00:43:17,875 --> 00:43:20,115
Wow, you made that? I did.
947
00:43:20,115 --> 00:43:22,595
You know, I felt really lucky
to be able to go behind the scenes
948
00:43:22,595 --> 00:43:24,355
and see how they make it,
949
00:43:24,355 --> 00:43:27,355
because it takes ages
to get that crab meat out.
950
00:43:27,355 --> 00:43:29,635
So much work to make this.
951
00:43:29,635 --> 00:43:32,675
Like, now I understand
why it's value for money.
952
00:43:32,675 --> 00:43:34,235
Wow! It's a steal!
953
00:43:34,235 --> 00:43:35,995
I was just talking to Glen,
954
00:43:35,995 --> 00:43:38,795
and, for him, it's not
just about making money,
955
00:43:38,795 --> 00:43:41,915
it's about his passion
for the local produce,
956
00:43:41,915 --> 00:43:45,275
and it's about sharing
the heritage of Yorkshire,
957
00:43:45,275 --> 00:43:48,115
because he wants everybody
to enjoy that coast,
958
00:43:48,115 --> 00:43:49,355
what comes out of the sea,
959
00:43:49,355 --> 00:43:52,835
and what Yorkshire means to him.
960
00:43:52,835 --> 00:43:54,555
And look at this.
961
00:43:54,555 --> 00:43:56,715
I mean, this is beautiful.
962
00:43:56,715 --> 00:43:59,315
The Seaview is a truly
special place to eat.
963
00:43:59,315 --> 00:44:02,955
It's giving local fishermen
a market for their produce,
964
00:44:02,955 --> 00:44:05,395
ensuring that locals
and visitors can feast
965
00:44:05,395 --> 00:44:10,075
on all the fantastic seafood
the area has to offer.
966
00:44:16,755 --> 00:44:21,035
Now we are heading west,
into the Yorkshire Dales.
967
00:44:21,035 --> 00:44:24,275
This timeless landscape
is dairy country,
968
00:44:24,275 --> 00:44:27,035
and I can't wait to see what
Nadiya's got in store for me.
969
00:44:27,035 --> 00:44:29,115
I couldn't come
all the way to Yorkshire
970
00:44:29,115 --> 00:44:30,675
and not bring you to the Dales.
971
00:44:30,675 --> 00:44:32,635
This is one of my favourite
places to visit.
972
00:44:32,635 --> 00:44:35,275
I almost went in the ditch now...
We did almost go in.
973
00:44:35,275 --> 00:44:37,715
..because I'm just looking
at the scenery,
974
00:44:37,715 --> 00:44:41,555
because I'm just mesmerised by the
beauty of what we are seeing here.
975
00:44:41,555 --> 00:44:43,555
I mean, this is like a postcard,
isn't it?
976
00:44:43,555 --> 00:44:45,555
You like cheese, don't you, Fred?
I love cheese
977
00:44:45,555 --> 00:44:48,635
but, you know, I don't remember
trying a Yorkshire cheese.
978
00:44:48,635 --> 00:44:49,875
You are in for a treat
979
00:44:49,875 --> 00:44:53,355
because Yorkshire produces
some of the best cheese ever.
980
00:44:53,355 --> 00:44:57,195
We are going to meet
an amazing cheesemonger called Andy.
981
00:44:57,195 --> 00:45:01,475
This incredible man has taken
a skill of making cheese
982
00:45:01,475 --> 00:45:03,275
and brought it right back.
983
00:45:03,275 --> 00:45:05,515
These are the heroes of Yorkshire.
984
00:45:05,515 --> 00:45:07,435
Oh, I'm looking forward to this.
985
00:45:09,515 --> 00:45:11,955
Nestled on the edge of
the National Park
986
00:45:11,955 --> 00:45:14,595
is an award-winning cheesemonger.
987
00:45:14,595 --> 00:45:18,275
Set up in 2012 by husband and wife
team Andy and Kathy Swinscoe,
988
00:45:18,275 --> 00:45:21,995
The Courtyard Dairy
focuses on championing
989
00:45:21,995 --> 00:45:23,635
the finest Northern cheese
990
00:45:23,635 --> 00:45:26,635
produced by small-scale
farmhouse cheesemakers.
991
00:45:28,275 --> 00:45:30,715
A lovely little cheese shop
in the middle of nowhere.
992
00:45:30,715 --> 00:45:32,155
It must be popular with the locals.
993
00:45:32,155 --> 00:45:34,155
Yes, very.
994
00:45:34,155 --> 00:45:37,875
Andy really does have
a Yorkshire cheese menu to die for -
995
00:45:37,875 --> 00:45:40,435
from Hebden Goat to Leeds Blue,
996
00:45:40,435 --> 00:45:44,915
there is even a locally-made
pecorino and Dales Cheddar
997
00:45:44,915 --> 00:45:46,795
to tantalise your taste buds.
998
00:45:46,795 --> 00:45:49,595
There are cars parked
everywhere here,
999
00:45:49,595 --> 00:45:51,395
and they are all coming
for your cheese.
1000
00:45:51,395 --> 00:45:52,715
I mean, this is a real success.
1001
00:45:52,715 --> 00:45:54,155
A lot of this produce is amazing
1002
00:45:54,155 --> 00:45:56,635
and it's made in this area,
and it should be sold in this area.
1003
00:45:56,635 --> 00:46:00,355
You know, we have such a close
relationship with the cheesemakers
1004
00:46:00,355 --> 00:46:02,195
that I really wanted
to champion them.
1005
00:46:02,195 --> 00:46:04,075
So, Andy, how many cheeses
do you sell?
1006
00:46:04,075 --> 00:46:06,035
Well, we actually do
quite a limited range.
1007
00:46:06,035 --> 00:46:08,915
We're doing just 30 cheeses, but
we try and do 30 that are proper.
1008
00:46:08,915 --> 00:46:10,955
We have an ethos
in what we're looking for,
1009
00:46:10,955 --> 00:46:14,475
and that is raw milk, farmhouse,
traditional farming methods,
1010
00:46:14,475 --> 00:46:15,675
making by hand.
1011
00:46:15,675 --> 00:46:17,835
Are they all Northern cheeses?
Pretty much.
1012
00:46:17,835 --> 00:46:20,595
We have a couple of Southerners
in there that we let in, you know,
1013
00:46:20,595 --> 00:46:22,515
just a nod, just a few!
1014
00:46:22,515 --> 00:46:24,115
The mark of a great cheesemonger
1015
00:46:24,115 --> 00:46:27,395
is being able to rely on
his recommendation.
1016
00:46:27,395 --> 00:46:28,995
Andy, we are going on a picnic.
1017
00:46:28,995 --> 00:46:31,035
I have no idea where
Nadiya is taking me,
1018
00:46:31,035 --> 00:46:33,875
but we'd like to get some cheese.
What do you recommend?
1019
00:46:33,875 --> 00:46:36,355
We've got three cheeses that
are made really traditionally
1020
00:46:36,355 --> 00:46:38,755
and made by hand,
and within 20 miles of us here.
1021
00:46:38,755 --> 00:46:41,395
Interestingly, they're all
following exactly the same recipe.
1022
00:46:41,395 --> 00:46:43,835
It's an old-fashioned Wensleydale
Dale-style recipe.
1023
00:46:43,835 --> 00:46:46,475
Because they're different farms,
because they've got slightly
1024
00:46:46,475 --> 00:46:48,915
different breeds of cow,
slightly different pasture,
1025
00:46:48,915 --> 00:46:51,595
they're distinctly different.
So, if you take the Fellstone,
1026
00:46:51,595 --> 00:46:53,395
the Old Roan - which is
made in Wensleydale -
1027
00:46:53,395 --> 00:46:55,355
and the Stonebeck -
which is from Nidderdale -
1028
00:46:55,355 --> 00:46:56,875
what you're really tasting is
1029
00:46:56,875 --> 00:46:58,955
the uniqueness of each
individual family farm.
1030
00:46:58,955 --> 00:47:02,315
You're talking my language.
Three cheese? Yes! Brilliant. Yeah.
1031
00:47:02,315 --> 00:47:04,555
Can you make sure you give us
big portions? Big chunks.
1032
00:47:04,555 --> 00:47:05,955
I'll try my best. Don't be stingy!
1033
00:47:05,955 --> 00:47:07,595
THEY LAUGH
1034
00:47:07,595 --> 00:47:10,035
Can we also have some crackers
or some bread, please?
1035
00:47:11,075 --> 00:47:13,475
Can we just educate him, please?
1036
00:47:13,475 --> 00:47:15,515
We are not going to have
crackers and cheese.
1037
00:47:15,515 --> 00:47:16,795
We're going to have fruitcake.
1038
00:47:16,795 --> 00:47:18,955
That's the way we eat cheese
up here in Yorkshire.
1039
00:47:18,955 --> 00:47:21,235
You're not going to get crackers
up here, right, Andy?
1040
00:47:21,235 --> 00:47:23,715
We've been having fruitcake
and cheese for hundreds of years.
1041
00:47:23,715 --> 00:47:25,995
Really? It is a traditional way
to have cheese up here?
1042
00:47:25,995 --> 00:47:27,635
A very traditional way.
1043
00:47:27,635 --> 00:47:30,075
Andy's not only selling cheese,
1044
00:47:30,075 --> 00:47:33,395
he's helping local farmers
to develop their products.
1045
00:47:33,395 --> 00:47:37,475
He's invited us to a local farm
to visit one of his producers
1046
00:47:37,475 --> 00:47:41,315
who make the Stonebeck
Wensleydale we bought from his shop.
1047
00:47:41,315 --> 00:47:45,555
Nadiya's checking out the cows with
farmer and cheesemaker Andrew Hatton
1048
00:47:45,555 --> 00:47:49,875
to find just why his cows make
a difference to his cheese.
1049
00:47:49,875 --> 00:47:52,115
COWS MOOING
Andrew, I can hear them.
1050
00:47:52,115 --> 00:47:55,115
Andrew keeps a herd of
rare Dale Shorthorns
1051
00:47:55,115 --> 00:47:58,315
who produce the creamy milk
for his product.
1052
00:47:58,315 --> 00:48:01,235
They were once the premier cow
in the Dales
1053
00:48:01,235 --> 00:48:04,275
before Friesian cows,
imported from Europe,
1054
00:48:04,275 --> 00:48:08,155
began to dominate milk production
in the '70s.
1055
00:48:08,155 --> 00:48:10,355
You started off with just two cows?
Yes.
1056
00:48:10,355 --> 00:48:13,115
Because they were so rare,
I mean, in the 1980s,
1057
00:48:13,115 --> 00:48:16,515
there were only 30 cows left
in the whole UK,
1058
00:48:16,515 --> 00:48:19,195
so it was really a taster. Yeah.
1059
00:48:19,195 --> 00:48:21,595
And then, once we realised that
that was going to work,
1060
00:48:21,595 --> 00:48:24,475
then that's when we started to
try and source Northern Dairies
1061
00:48:24,475 --> 00:48:25,595
from around the UK.
1062
00:48:25,595 --> 00:48:29,955
The cows have a wide range
of plants in their diet.
1063
00:48:29,955 --> 00:48:31,875
It's not simply grass.
1064
00:48:31,875 --> 00:48:35,235
And because we feed very little
supplementary food as well,
1065
00:48:35,235 --> 00:48:38,835
we often say to people that the
cheese reflects the view that
1066
00:48:38,835 --> 00:48:42,475
you see, the essence of the place.
The essence, that's what it is.
1067
00:48:42,475 --> 00:48:44,675
OK, so I'm going to go
and check the cows now. OK.
1068
00:48:44,675 --> 00:48:46,915
Just make sure they're all healthy.
Yeah.
1069
00:48:46,915 --> 00:48:48,555
So, how many cows do you have?
1070
00:48:48,555 --> 00:48:51,995
So, at the moment,
we've got 13 cows this summer.
1071
00:48:51,995 --> 00:48:55,915
We'll probably be milking 23,
24 cows next summer.
1072
00:48:55,915 --> 00:48:57,275
MOOING
1073
00:48:57,275 --> 00:49:00,315
See, that's why I'm not in there.
Yeah! It's OK, it's OK.
1074
00:49:00,315 --> 00:49:02,755
So, how much of your cheese
does Andy buy?
1075
00:49:02,755 --> 00:49:05,795
This year, Andy's probably bought
90% of it.
1076
00:49:05,795 --> 00:49:09,395
He can take 30 cheeses
a fortnight or something,
1077
00:49:09,395 --> 00:49:13,155
which, for us as a small producer,
is amazing.
1078
00:49:13,155 --> 00:49:15,955
He's much more than just, like,
somebody who sells cheese, right?
1079
00:49:15,955 --> 00:49:20,835
He is. Actually, the support started
before we'd even made any cheese.
1080
00:49:20,835 --> 00:49:22,475
We went into his shop and said,
1081
00:49:22,475 --> 00:49:24,515
"Andy, we've got
some rare breed cows
1082
00:49:24,515 --> 00:49:26,475
"that are native
to the Yorkshire Dales.
1083
00:49:26,475 --> 00:49:29,595
"What sort of cheese would we make?
Is there a market for it?"
1084
00:49:29,595 --> 00:49:30,995
And... You are brave.
1085
00:49:30,995 --> 00:49:35,075
Well, that's really interesting,
because I think that, actually,
1086
00:49:35,075 --> 00:49:38,115
to take this step into the unknown
1087
00:49:38,115 --> 00:49:40,835
makes our future, we hope,
more secure.
1088
00:49:40,835 --> 00:49:43,795
Whereas, if we'd have stuck
with beef and sheep,
1089
00:49:43,795 --> 00:49:47,955
I think we would probably be
exiting the farming industry
1090
00:49:47,955 --> 00:49:49,715
within the next ten years.
1091
00:49:51,315 --> 00:49:54,595
Andrew's farm specialises
in Wensleydale,
1092
00:49:54,595 --> 00:49:59,835
and at any one time there will be
as many as 300 wheels of this cheese
1093
00:49:59,835 --> 00:50:03,395
maturing at different rates
in the farm's barn.
1094
00:50:03,395 --> 00:50:05,555
Andy has 30 producers to visit,
1095
00:50:05,555 --> 00:50:08,595
and at each one
he will grade their produce,
1096
00:50:08,595 --> 00:50:12,035
allowing him to hand-pick
the best for his shop.
1097
00:50:12,035 --> 00:50:13,835
Hi. Hi, Sally, how are you?
1098
00:50:13,835 --> 00:50:15,875
Welcome.
Yeah, good to have you with us.
1099
00:50:15,875 --> 00:50:18,715
Sally Hatton makes the cheese
alongside her husband Andrew,
1100
00:50:18,715 --> 00:50:21,555
and is joining us
for the grading session,
1101
00:50:21,555 --> 00:50:24,715
which happens from six weeks
after the cheese is made.
1102
00:50:24,715 --> 00:50:25,915
What does it mean, grading?
1103
00:50:25,915 --> 00:50:28,755
So, it means sampling it, really,
so we'll take a little plug from it,
1104
00:50:28,755 --> 00:50:30,715
so we don't damage the cheese
too much. Right.
1105
00:50:30,715 --> 00:50:32,395
And we just have a little sample.
1106
00:50:32,395 --> 00:50:34,155
It's not a buffet.
All right, it's all right!
1107
00:50:34,155 --> 00:50:36,435
I'm not going to eat
all your cheese, don't worry!
1108
00:50:36,435 --> 00:50:37,635
THEY LAUGH
1109
00:50:39,155 --> 00:50:40,915
That's it?
That's all you're getting.
1110
00:50:40,915 --> 00:50:42,915
That's it!
I told you, you wouldn't get much.
1111
00:50:42,915 --> 00:50:44,155
Come on!
1112
00:50:46,755 --> 00:50:49,235
And that, for me, is
a good example of this cheese.
1113
00:50:49,235 --> 00:50:52,035
It's sharp, it's buttery,
it's creamy.
1114
00:50:52,035 --> 00:50:53,995
And then, the rest of
that plug there, you see,
1115
00:50:53,995 --> 00:50:55,995
we can plug it back up.
But you can give it to me.
1116
00:50:55,995 --> 00:50:57,475
THEY LAUGH
1117
00:50:57,475 --> 00:50:58,995
But if we can seal it back up,
1118
00:50:58,995 --> 00:51:01,435
then that cheese
can continue to mature now.
1119
00:51:01,435 --> 00:51:04,835
Andy knows exactly how
a cheese should be aged and matured,
1120
00:51:04,835 --> 00:51:08,115
making him invaluable
to local producers.
1121
00:51:08,115 --> 00:51:11,075
Can I just say, I was looking
forward to a cheese tasting? No...
1122
00:51:11,075 --> 00:51:14,395
All I have is the crumbs. Well,
that's it. Welcome to Yorkshire!
1123
00:51:14,395 --> 00:51:16,075
LAUGHTER
1124
00:51:16,075 --> 00:51:18,515
What is going on with these guys?!
1125
00:51:18,515 --> 00:51:21,075
It's freezing, and all they give me
is little crumbs!
1126
00:51:22,275 --> 00:51:23,955
These are all the same cheeses,
right?
1127
00:51:23,955 --> 00:51:26,515
Yes. So, Andrew and Sally are
trying to follow the same recipe,
1128
00:51:26,515 --> 00:51:27,995
but they'll get variants, you know,
1129
00:51:27,995 --> 00:51:30,555
depending on where their cows are
on the pasture.
1130
00:51:30,555 --> 00:51:32,475
They're working with warm milk.
1131
00:51:32,475 --> 00:51:35,315
On a warm day up here,
the bacteria will happen faster.
1132
00:51:35,315 --> 00:51:37,475
You can really see the differences
sometimes.
1133
00:51:37,475 --> 00:51:40,195
If you compare that iron there,
that's what we call a full iron,
1134
00:51:40,195 --> 00:51:43,235
it's all rounded all the way around,
and that's quite crumbly and fresh.
1135
00:51:43,235 --> 00:51:45,475
And, as a result,
they will have different textures
1136
00:51:45,475 --> 00:51:47,315
and they'll have different
flavours as well.
1137
00:51:47,315 --> 00:51:49,835
And that's one of the great things
about farmhouse cheeses,
1138
00:51:49,835 --> 00:51:52,595
you really are showing
the nature of the farm.
1139
00:51:52,595 --> 00:51:54,435
It's a lot of work
and it's a lot of expertise.
1140
00:51:54,435 --> 00:51:56,035
I mean, you've got to know
about cows,
1141
00:51:56,035 --> 00:51:58,475
you've got to know how to feed them,
how to make the cheese,
1142
00:51:58,475 --> 00:52:00,715
how to mature the cheese.
I mean, there is so much here.
1143
00:52:00,715 --> 00:52:03,555
I mean, I don't know
where to start, really.
1144
00:52:03,555 --> 00:52:06,195
It's not something you can do
in a rush. No.
1145
00:52:06,195 --> 00:52:08,675
But all of that adds excitement.
1146
00:52:08,675 --> 00:52:10,515
It's got complexity,
it's got challenge,
1147
00:52:10,515 --> 00:52:12,755
and it makes it really worthwhile.
1148
00:52:12,755 --> 00:52:14,515
You guys support each other.
1149
00:52:14,515 --> 00:52:16,995
You know, they make the cheese,
you buy the cheese.
1150
00:52:16,995 --> 00:52:19,315
This is how it works here, isn't it?
Yeah, exactly.
1151
00:52:19,315 --> 00:52:21,035
It's not so much
they're just suppliers.
1152
00:52:21,035 --> 00:52:23,795
You know, I want their cheese to be
amazing, I want them to succeed.
1153
00:52:23,795 --> 00:52:25,675
I want everything to work
on this farm, you know,
1154
00:52:25,675 --> 00:52:28,555
and I think everybody should eat
good quality food that's made
1155
00:52:28,555 --> 00:52:30,555
locally, and this is a perfect
example of that.
1156
00:52:30,555 --> 00:52:34,235
Cheese - I couldn't think of
a more delicious food to feast on
1157
00:52:34,235 --> 00:52:36,675
while out exploring
1158
00:52:36,675 --> 00:52:41,315
the Dales' 2,628km
of public footpaths.
1159
00:52:42,355 --> 00:52:44,915
Nadiya's brought me to Malham Cove,
1160
00:52:44,915 --> 00:52:47,875
one of Yorkshire's
most iconic landmarks,
1161
00:52:47,875 --> 00:52:50,555
so we can settle down
and enjoy our picnic.
1162
00:52:50,555 --> 00:52:54,435
Just check it out, Fred,
check it out.
1163
00:52:54,435 --> 00:52:56,475
No matter how many times I visit,
1164
00:52:56,475 --> 00:52:58,515
it just gets more
and more beautiful.
1165
00:52:59,555 --> 00:53:01,995
I'm looking forward to
eating this cheese here
1166
00:53:01,995 --> 00:53:03,995
in this beautiful setting.
1167
00:53:03,995 --> 00:53:07,355
Fred, it's the best Yorkshire cheese
in the best spot in Yorkshire.
1168
00:53:12,835 --> 00:53:16,475
Can I tell you,
I feel so English right now?
1169
00:53:16,475 --> 00:53:18,715
And I wouldn't have anything else
but tea here.
1170
00:53:18,715 --> 00:53:21,155
I wouldn't have Champagne,
I wouldn't have red wine,
1171
00:53:21,155 --> 00:53:23,235
I wouldn't have anything but tea,
1172
00:53:23,235 --> 00:53:26,035
because I feel so immersed
in the culture.
1173
00:53:26,035 --> 00:53:27,675
I'm experiencing Yorkshire.
1174
00:53:27,675 --> 00:53:29,195
Shall we eat this cheese? Come on.
1175
00:53:29,195 --> 00:53:30,875
You know what
I'm really excited about?
1176
00:53:30,875 --> 00:53:32,515
It's the Wensleydale trio.
1177
00:53:32,515 --> 00:53:35,435
And what I find really fascinating
is that they're all the same cheese,
1178
00:53:35,435 --> 00:53:36,995
but they look completely different.
1179
00:53:36,995 --> 00:53:38,595
It's beautiful.
1180
00:53:38,595 --> 00:53:41,435
I think we should start with Sally
and Andrew's cheese, don't you?
1181
00:53:41,435 --> 00:53:43,275
Oh, yes.
Yeah. And we're going to eat it
1182
00:53:43,275 --> 00:53:44,835
the way we eat it here in Yorkshire,
1183
00:53:44,835 --> 00:53:46,955
and fruitcake and cheese
are so good together.
1184
00:53:46,955 --> 00:53:50,395
Can I just say, I love cheese,
and I love fruitcake,
1185
00:53:50,395 --> 00:53:52,635
so that combination here
is perfect for me.
1186
00:53:52,635 --> 00:53:55,035
Come on, let's give it a go,
shall we? All right.
1187
00:53:55,035 --> 00:53:58,315
Look how crumbly this cheese is!
Yes! It is really crumbly.
1188
00:53:58,315 --> 00:54:01,475
So, take a slice of
your fruitcake, right?
1189
00:54:01,475 --> 00:54:03,395
And then
a bit of your cheese on top.
1190
00:54:04,475 --> 00:54:06,595
It's like, so you use the fruitcake
as a cracker.
1191
00:54:08,475 --> 00:54:11,275
It's sweet, it's salty...
1192
00:54:12,875 --> 00:54:14,835
Oh! Good combination, right?
1193
00:54:14,835 --> 00:54:18,235
That fruitcake with the cheese
is a fantastic combination.
1194
00:54:18,235 --> 00:54:19,795
Oh, I really like that.
1195
00:54:19,795 --> 00:54:23,275
And, you know, Andrew and Sally's
cheese is really creamy,
1196
00:54:23,275 --> 00:54:25,715
really rich, really fatty,
1197
00:54:25,715 --> 00:54:28,435
and I think that's why it's
crumbling so much. I really like it.
1198
00:54:28,435 --> 00:54:31,035
Shall we try another one?
Yeah, let's try this one.
1199
00:54:32,195 --> 00:54:36,315
Mm, that one's much firmer,
more like a Cheddar.
1200
00:54:36,315 --> 00:54:41,555
Yes. It's got this round, mature,
milky flavour, hasn't it? Mm-mm.
1201
00:54:41,555 --> 00:54:45,035
Oh, this one's kind of somewhere in
between, this third cheese.
1202
00:54:45,035 --> 00:54:48,475
It's not crumbly,
but not really firm. Yeah.
1203
00:54:48,475 --> 00:54:50,915
Ooh! It's tastes really different.
1204
00:54:50,915 --> 00:54:54,795
It has a very nutty
but very mature flavour.
1205
00:54:54,795 --> 00:54:58,635
You know, what's very exciting for
me is that these three Wensleydales
1206
00:54:58,635 --> 00:55:02,315
are all completely different,
aren't they?
1207
00:55:02,315 --> 00:55:04,195
This cheeseboard is generous,
1208
00:55:04,195 --> 00:55:08,075
but a picnic for two from Andy
can be bought for around £12
1209
00:55:08,075 --> 00:55:10,435
and it's a total bargain
for this fantastic produce.
1210
00:55:10,435 --> 00:55:12,875
I don't know about you,
but when I go to the supermarket
1211
00:55:12,875 --> 00:55:15,315
and I see Wensleydale,
I'm going to remember this trip.
1212
00:55:15,315 --> 00:55:16,715
SHE LAUGHS
1213
00:55:16,715 --> 00:55:19,355
Now you've tasted this,
and this is the best,
1214
00:55:19,355 --> 00:55:21,195
I tell you one thing,
forget the rest.
1215
00:55:21,195 --> 00:55:25,395
What Andy's done is he's trusted
in the land and in the farmers,
1216
00:55:25,395 --> 00:55:29,635
and this is the product of hard work
and a little bit of dreaming.
1217
00:55:29,635 --> 00:55:31,755
And the sun is shining again.
1218
00:55:31,755 --> 00:55:33,395
It's glorious!
1219
00:55:40,075 --> 00:55:43,355
We have one last walk to do
on our Yorkshire adventure,
1220
00:55:43,355 --> 00:55:47,195
and that's to the top of
the glorious Malham Cove itself.
1221
00:55:47,195 --> 00:55:50,035
Come on! Why are you not tired?
Come on!
1222
00:55:50,035 --> 00:55:52,435
No! I want to go to the top!
1223
00:55:54,235 --> 00:55:58,795
Fred, we are finally here. We made
it to the top of Malham Cove.
1224
00:55:58,795 --> 00:56:01,955
This is my most favourite place
to come and sit
1225
00:56:01,955 --> 00:56:05,035
and really appreciate
what Yorkshire is all about.
1226
00:56:05,035 --> 00:56:07,995
It's a long way to the top,
but it was well worth it.
1227
00:56:07,995 --> 00:56:09,355
It's beautiful.
1228
00:56:09,355 --> 00:56:11,355
But what Yorkshire is for me
1229
00:56:11,355 --> 00:56:13,595
is about the people
that you introduced me to.
1230
00:56:13,595 --> 00:56:16,995
All these places, you know,
where we've been, you know,
1231
00:56:16,995 --> 00:56:19,475
from Anand Sweets to Bettys,
1232
00:56:19,475 --> 00:56:22,115
to this beautiful
Seaview restaurant,
1233
00:56:22,115 --> 00:56:25,995
the diversity of the culture,
of the produce that there is here
1234
00:56:25,995 --> 00:56:27,635
is just incredible.
1235
00:56:27,635 --> 00:56:29,675
So often, when people think
Yorkshire,
1236
00:56:29,675 --> 00:56:31,355
they think wellies and pies
1237
00:56:31,355 --> 00:56:33,075
and, actually,
it's much more than that.
1238
00:56:33,075 --> 00:56:34,595
I've had the privilege
of living here.
1239
00:56:34,595 --> 00:56:35,955
It's a wonderful place to live.
1240
00:56:35,955 --> 00:56:37,995
So it's really difficult for me
to pinpoint
1241
00:56:37,995 --> 00:56:41,515
the bits that I wanted to show you,
the little pockets of beauty.
1242
00:56:41,515 --> 00:56:43,395
I think that you've done very well
1243
00:56:43,395 --> 00:56:46,435
because you've really shown me
what it's about,
1244
00:56:46,435 --> 00:56:50,355
because it's about real people
that produce beautiful things
1245
00:56:50,355 --> 00:56:52,795
and are so proud about what they do,
1246
00:56:52,795 --> 00:56:54,435
about their heritage
1247
00:56:54,435 --> 00:56:55,915
and what they stand for.
1248
00:56:55,915 --> 00:57:00,115
With the variation of the landscape
comes different types of food,
1249
00:57:00,115 --> 00:57:02,555
humble food with humble ingredients,
1250
00:57:02,555 --> 00:57:04,315
made really, really well.
1251
00:57:04,315 --> 00:57:06,635
The places we've visited
1252
00:57:06,635 --> 00:57:08,515
have really showcased all this
1253
00:57:08,515 --> 00:57:10,395
wonderful county has to offer,
1254
00:57:10,395 --> 00:57:12,515
and the love and care that goes
1255
00:57:12,515 --> 00:57:14,475
into creating their produce
1256
00:57:14,475 --> 00:57:16,355
is evident for all to see.
1257
00:57:16,355 --> 00:57:19,515
But most of all,
it's the warmth and generosity
1258
00:57:19,515 --> 00:57:21,875
of the people who live here
that I will never forget.
1259
00:57:21,875 --> 00:57:25,515
There's one more thing, Nadiya, that
is quite incredible about Yorkshire,
1260
00:57:25,515 --> 00:57:29,715
and I've never encountered
to that level anywhere else,
1261
00:57:29,715 --> 00:57:31,195
is the value for money.
1262
00:57:31,195 --> 00:57:33,635
I mean, the samosa was 60p.
1263
00:57:33,635 --> 00:57:36,675
The crab brioche was £14.95.
1264
00:57:36,675 --> 00:57:40,035
And what about that delicious
afternoon tea at Bettys?
1265
00:57:40,035 --> 00:57:42,635
I mean, yahoo!
NADIYA LAUGHS
1266
00:57:42,635 --> 00:57:45,915
We know how to look after
our pennies here in Yorkshire.
1267
00:57:45,915 --> 00:57:48,675
And you know what? Amazing food
does not have to cost the Earth,
1268
00:57:48,675 --> 00:57:51,555
and I am so glad I've
proved it to you.
1269
00:57:51,555 --> 00:57:52,955
Exactly.
1270
00:58:00,595 --> 00:58:03,795
Next time,
I'm in the magical New Forest
1271
00:58:03,795 --> 00:58:06,795
with greengrocer extraordinaire
Chris Bavin.
1272
00:58:06,795 --> 00:58:08,995
I'll drink to that. Cheers!
1273
00:58:08,995 --> 00:58:10,795
From perfect Ploughman's,
1274
00:58:10,795 --> 00:58:12,435
to fine dining...
1275
00:58:12,435 --> 00:58:13,835
We've had the best of the Forest,
1276
00:58:13,835 --> 00:58:15,675
and now I'm giving you
the best of the seafood.
1277
00:58:15,675 --> 00:58:18,515
..he'll reveal
the region's most delicious eats.
1278
00:58:18,515 --> 00:58:20,755
How come I never heard about this?
