How to Cook Like Heston

Culinary wizard Heston Blumenthal reveals how to perform magic in our own kitchens by confronting and dispelling old myths to revolutionize the way the nation cooks.

Taking one ingredient at a time, he will disclose his carefully researched tips and techniques to build a compendium across the series. Each episode will be packed with three recipes based on the featured ingredient, an excuse to bring out a few power tools, plus tonnes of take-out tips, like how to make the ultimate chocolate cake, why you should never boil an egg, and where you should store your dry ice. In the Heston way of course, there will also be a light touch of science with special cameras and technology that shows what actually happens to food as it hits the pan or roasts in the oven with time.
