Heston's Great British Food
12:30PM
Food PG Heston pays homage to British classic - the pie - and serves his pie banquet to a select group of British pie-makers, 100 feet in the air over the East End of London.
Heston salutes the great British pie as he looks to find inspiration for a three-course pie banquet. Heston makes a gala pie where the 'meat' is actually beetroot and horseradish ice cream, and the 'egg' is made from goats' cheese panna cotta, saffron and bacon. The main course is a gothic pie inspired by Sweeney Todd, with body part pies accompanied by fake eyeballs, squid pupils, saffron veins, and fingers and ears made from cheese, Tabasco and chicken liver parfait and fig. No British pie banquet would be complete without a nod to pie and mash. Heston sets out to make the lightest ever mash by trying to change the molecular structure of a spud by sending it into space, before making a pie, mash, and liquor dessert.
