The back of a Van years…
Many years ago, I was persuaded by the noted food Historian Peter Brears to come along with him to try some Tudor cooking.
​
Over the next few years Peter used me as part of his ‘team’ that toured the historic kitchens that he was working to bring back to life.
​
We cooked at Syon Park, Petworth House. Dryham Park and Harewood house.
Rotating between them all as the year went round. It was like being in a band without any of the fame or money.
​
It was, however, a great learning curve. Peter became a tutor, mentor and great friend.
