I love Rachel Khoo but, just to illustrate my eclectic taste in cookery programmes, I also love The Hairy Bikers, despite (or maybe because) of their devil may care attitude to political correctness.
I've been following their latest series (Hairy Bikers' Bakeation) with mixed interest. I very much enjoyed their journeys through Norway and Eastern Europe, but wasn't as impressed with the others. Maybe it was the scenery or maybe the recipes. I don't know.
One recipe that caught my attention was for Pogasca (bacon scones). I tried them out at our reading group this evening where they were well received. The handful that are left will go nicely with a bowl of soup tomorrow lunchtime.
The book we were discussing this evening was The Tiger's Wife by Tea Obreht, set in the Balkans, next door to Hungary, so there was a bit of a theme going on.
