Ever Wondered About Nuts 知飲知食 (9 Apr 2007)
Nuts have been nibbled the world over since dinosaurs roamed the earth. Nuts were presented to Joseph of Technicolour Dreamcoat fame, and travelled to the moon on Apollo 14 as a space snack. We look at the changing fortunes of the nut from vegetarian staple to boho-chic. The pub nut, once shunned for being fatty and salty, may gain a new lease of life as research shows that nuts can lower your cholesterol and help you stay slim. Paul uses these nutritional powerhouses in a recipe for Zanzibar Chicken, explains the science behind a delicious almond tart and shows how to make a quick and easy classic Italian pesto.


Ever Wondered About Sugar 知飲知食 (16 Apr 2007)
Sugar occurs naturally in almost everything we eat, and we love it so much that we east an extra 150 million tonnes of the stuff every year. Find out how to make the ideal meringue, why sugar is the perfect preservative and what transforms sugar syrup into a golden honeycomb. Paul explores how to satisfy our sweet tooth without losing our teeth and why forgetting to wash your hands can lead to some amazing scientific discoveries.

In case you don't know, Paul is referred to Paul Merrett, who was trained under Gary Rhodes at The Greenhouse in London, following his apprenticeship at The Ritz and three years working with chef Peter Kromberg at Le Souffle. Since then, Paul has established a reputation for classic British cuisine with an Asian twist and his cooking was awarded a Michelin star whilst at Interlude in Charlotte Street. Paul then worked for several years as Head Chef at The Greenhouse where he received another Michelin star but then left to open his own less formal restaurant, The Farm in Fulham, London. Paul has made several TV appearances, including co-presenting BBC2's primetime series, 'Fresh Food,' and appearing on 'Great Food Live' on UKTV. He co-presented the BBC2 primetime series 'The Best,' with Ben O'Donoghue and Silvana Franco in 2002, with an accompanying BBC book also entitled 'The Best.'
