Matt and Olly dive into two of Britain’s most beloved food and
drink staples: beer-battered fish and chips, and, of course, beer!
Matt explores the fascinating history of fish and chips, from
Jewish immigration and the origins of fried fish to its role in
wartime Britain and even the D-Day landings. And no plate of fish
and chips is complete without the condiments! Matt shares his
super-simple, super-delicious curry sauce recipe for you to try at
home. Meanwhile, Olly makes the case for why beer deserves to be
taken just as seriously as wine, exploring its extraordinary
history stretching back thousands of years. They also uncover some
of the unusual ingredients that have found their way into beer over
the centuries and tackle the question: is beer suitable for
vegetarians? Plus, they discover the bizarre historical drink known
as cock ale. Probably best not to try that one at home! And, of
course, Olly brings along two very different beers for Matt to try.
