National Butchers' Week
Neil Forbes gives a masterclass in how to joint a chicken for National Butchers' Week, plus Sumayya Usmani cooks an easy spicy lunch or midweek tea.
We are unashamedly meaty on this week's Kitchen Cafe! For National Butchers' week, Chef Neil Forbes gives us a masterclass in how to joint a chicken and Sumayya Usmani turns the simplest of ingredients into a deliciously spicy and different quick lunch or midweek tea. Plus, we visit rare breed goat farmer Ruth Harris in Strathaven and find out about the art of charcuterie from craft butcher Rachel Hammond at the Edinburgh Farmers' Market.
