Sandwich

Jay Rayner is back for a new series of The Kitchen Cabinet. This week he's joined by culinary experts Tim Anderson, Melek Erdal, Jeremy Pang and Zoe Laughlin. Jay and the panel return to Zoe's hometown of Sandwich. This time they side-step the obvious, and instead learn about an iconic local crop – sweetcorn. Farmer Ian Mather from Quex Barn explains why sweetcorn grows so well in the area, while the panel debates the best way to prepare and enjoy an ear. As Kent is a county known for cricket, the panellists are also joined by Rex Scoones of Sandwich Town Cricket Club. He explains what makes the perfect “British Cricket Tea”, while Zoe chips in with her very own sandwich and cake stacking method.
