What to Eat Now - Series 1 - Episode 1

Chef and culinary explorer Valentine Warner takes us on a mouth-watering adventure through the very best of autumn food. Combining his two great loves - nature and food - Valentine travels the length and breadth of Britain unearthing the finest autumn ingredients. Each week he'll be showing us the food we should be eating as the nights draw in, how it grows and mouth-watering ways to cook it. Valentine visits an archaeological dig in Northumberland and turns the tables on the rabbits who are wreaking havoc with the ruins. The rabbits end up on the menu in a deliciously simple stew with peas, cider and lettuce. Then Valentine heads to the hills of North Wales to source perfect autumn lamb for his melting dish of slow roast lamb with bitter herbs and honey; and he visits Derbyshire in search of the black gold of the food world: truffles.
