Picnics

Dave and Si explore Britain's national love of picnics, celebrating classics such as the cornish pasty and the scotch egg, and baking a luxurious dundee cake.

Dave and Si take a culinary journey through time and celebrate British food.

Here, they explore our national love of picnics and everything that goes in it. With their unique banter and camaraderie, the hairy duo create their ultimate al fresco lunch at Beaufort Polo Club; find out how our summer obsession evolved; celebrate picnic classics such as the cornish pasty and the scotch egg; bake a luxurious dundee cake, and make a country terrine that would play centre stage in any outdoor feast.
