For 150 years the East of England Co-op has always been looking at the small things we can do that will make a big difference. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve supported our colleagues and communities through two World Wars and rationing, seen five coronations and a millennium, the birth of television, computers and the internet. Through all that change weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve continued to innovate and adapt, and in 2018 weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re proud to still be at the heart of the communities we serve.

Now in our 13th year, we are proud of this unique Festival as it has played a leading part in encouraging local food and drink producers, helping to establish Suffolk as a food destination. We focus on quality not quantity and are delighted to have consistently been voted one of the best food festival in the country. Nowadays, the importance of good food, where it comes from and the vital part it has to play in maintaining a healthy lifestyle is widely understood and we are involved at every stage. supporting schoolchildren, nurturing new and innovative businesses and working closely with our farmers, fishermen and producers. We are also founding partners of the ‘Food & Drink Fund’, part of the Suffolk Community Foundation – a grant-making charity established to improve the lives of local residents. In addition, this year we are hosting a conference (Friday 28th September) to explore the ways to eat wisely and well – see page 14 for more details. We like to think there really is something for everyone and promise a weekend full of fabulous things to do and wonderful food and drink experiences. So, whether you’re making special dishes in a masterclass, learning from experts in demos, talks and discussions, trying quality food and drink, enjoying children’s fun and games or simply soaking up the relaxing atmosphere in these beautiful surroundings, our aim is to make sure you have a perfect pocketful of Suffolk.

conference

Eating wisely & well

Aldeburgh Food and Drink Festival Conference Friday 28th September 2018, 9.30am – 4pm The Aldeburgh Food and Drink Festival is a famously enjoyable occasion which, along with its fringe programme, has helped to boost the popularity of our region’s produce, enabling existing businesses to flourish while encouraging new start-ups. It also has a wider purpose; to educate, and one way it can do this is through conferences on topical food-related issues. This year the conference is about healthy eating and why change is needed, particularly in relation to diet. Speakers are leading consumer and medical researchers and local food experts. Subjects include food-buying behaviour, the strong link between diet and disease, the role of local food in bringing about change, and the potential effects of Brexit on our local food chains. For anyone who is interested in healthy eating, this is an unmissable event and we are very grateful to our sponsors* for making it possible. Lady Caroline Cranbrook, Festival President and Co-Founder

Aldeburgh Food & Drink Festival 2018

Should we be concerned about our eating habits and the problems associated with obesity and diet-related disease? This question will be the focus of this year’s Aldeburgh Food and Drink Festival Conference, while also exploring potential solutions and the part regional food has to play – as Lady Caroline Cranbrook explains.

What’s on the agenda? This year’s conference theme is ‘Eating Wisely and Well’. Speakers from the forefront of consumer and medical research, together with local food experts, will address the need for change in our eating habits. Assisted by panellists drawn from East Anglian food businesses, they will debate their conclusions with the audience and discuss how local and regional food producers should respond, both now and post-Brexit.

Who will be speaking? The conference will be chaired by the former BBC Breakfast presenter Bill Turnbull. The first speaker is Professor Andrew Fearne from Norwich Business School, who has been studying the buying habits of consumers for over 15 years and will explain the challenges of enouraging behavioural change. Doug Field, Chief Executive of the East of England Co-op

and Chair of the New Anglia Local Enterprise Partnership, will describe the Co-op’s highly successful local food sourcing policy. The connection between food, diet and disease will be explained by Professor Alastair Forbes, medical doctor, scientist and gastroenterologist from Norwich Research Park and University of East Anglia. Bee Wilson, the acclaimed British author, food writer and historian, will then argue that change is possible, and Oliver Paul from Suffolk Food Hall will talk about the advantages of local food. Finally, Martin Collison, representing the EU Short Supply Chain Knowledge and Innovation Network (SKIN), will share the European experience on developing shorter food chains.

Who is the conference aimed at? The subject matter of the conference affects us all, so the answer is everyone! Whether you are involved in education, health, the public sector, farming, food production or food retailing and if you are concerned about the link between diet and health or just care about what you eat, it promises to be a fascinating and inspiring day.

How do I attend?

Places are limited and tickets can be booked online. Thanks to the support of our sponsors* the ticket price is just £35 and includes a wonderful seasonal two-course lunch featuring local produce.

Book online at www.aldeburghfoodanddrink.co.uk/conference *This project has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 Research and Innovation programme under grant agreement N.728055. Aldeburgh Food & Drink Festival 2018

Our family-run, Southwold-based flower farm and shop offers a beautiful and unique range of freshly cut flowers and gifts to locals, visitors and businesses. Tucked away just off the Southwold High Street, our recently launched courtyard shop includes a vast array of carefully selected gifts for the home and garden as well as a pick-and-mix flower bar where customers can create their own posy or bouquet to take away. From spring to autumn, the majority of our cut flowers are harvested daily from our nearby farm in Reydon where we grow a diverse range of British flowers; from cornflowers to roses, each bloom lovingly nurtured from seed to stem. We have a talented team of creative florists on-hand to offer advice and expertise and create floral arrangements for all occasions including gift bouquets of all sizes and styles, personalised sympathy tributes for loved ones and unique commissions for businesses and individuals. The Southwold Flower Company offers a year-round bespoke wedding and occasion service. We like to think our personalised and creative approach to working with flowers and our use of locally grown blooms makes us the perfect choice for brides and grooms looking for unforgettable wedding flowers, as unique as they are.

THREE GREAT RESTAURANTS BY THE SEA IN ALDEBURGH With three superb restaurants overlooking the stunning Suffolk Heritage Coast at Aldeburgh, the TA Hotel Collection has a justifiable reputation for offering a great choice of fantastic places to eat.Whether you choose to dine in the Seafood & Grill at the Brudenell Hotel; the White Lion’s Bar and Restaurant, or the more exotic Sea Spice, the dishes focus on Suffolk’s fantastic natural larder from land and sea.

Dine on the terrace at the Brudenell Hotel The AA two rosette Seafood & Grill and beach-front terrace at the chic Brudenell Hotel have spectacular sea views.

service. Enjoy traditional fish and chips, locally caught skate wing, Alde Valley lamb and prime Suffolk steaks, all cooked to perfection. Eating in the restaurant is a fun experience to be shared with family and friends; children can choose from the own menu or ask for a smaller portion from the main menu. The White Lion is also known for its themed afternoon tea menu, which changes monthly. Offering a variety of sweet and savoury treats, it’s served daily in Brasserie Bleue from 3pm to 5pm priced at £15 per person or £21 with a glass of sparkling Prosecco.

The focus of the menus is on fresh, seasonal fish and seafood just landed from the sea with dishes created around the daily catch. A seafood calendar features a different fish or seafood each month. There’s also a choice of locally sourced meats, poultry and game, when in season. Stop for a refreshing drink or a delicious meal and take in the breath-taking views of Aldeburgh’s beach from the comfort of the terrace. You can dine alfresco listening to the waves on the beach, or eat in the stylish restaurant, away from the sea breeze but still watching the boats go by through the floor to ceiling windows.

Sea Spice Indian cuisine Relax and enjoy superb Indian cuisine along with craft beers and fine wines at the White Lion’s second restaurant, Sea Spice. Menus offer an exciting array of classic favourites and contemporary dishes ranging from Goan inspired fish and seafood, to tandoor grilled meats, traditional fragrant curries and vegetarian options. Wonderful food created with verve and panache using only the finest and freshest ingredients. Sea Spice is a unique combination of modern and traditional reflected in both its cuisine and stylish décor.

Family friendly White Lion Restaurant

The bar and restaurant at Aldeburgh’s seafront White Lion Hotel is well-known for offering great value, beautifully cooked, classic dishes, served in relaxed and informal family-friendly surroundings. Created by Head Chef James Barber, menus in the AA rosette restaurant are inspired by traditional dishes made with fresh, local ingredients, matched with impeccable Aldeburgh Food & Drink Festival 2018

For Meat Geeks. Iken Old Cow & Soay Lambs What is Iken Old Cow?

And Soay Lambs… any good?!

‘Old Cow’ (no mother-in-law jokes please) is a highly-prized northern Spanish meat which comes from retired dairy cows that have been let loose on pasture for up to 17 years. ‘Iken Old Cow’ is Salter & King’s very own Suffolk take on this special beef. It came about after award-winning butcher, Gerard King, started working with Iken farmer, Natasha Mann, to develop a local equivalent with her herd of traditional-breed Lincoln Reds for his shop in Aldeburgh.

It’s very hard to find a Soay in a butcher’s shop – it’s a semi-feral breed, and their small frames are considered uneconomical. They came originally from the island of Soay in the Scottish St.Kilda peninsular, and bear a strong resemblance to the wild ancestors of domestic sheep. It’s a real treat to have found a herd nearby – these dark, horned beauties roam the fields of Great Glemham in the Alde Valley – and Gerard is lucky enough to have a good relationship with the farmer: he takes them when he can!

Iken Old Cow has now gathered a die-hard fanbase – all drawn to the exceptional depth of flavour and rich, well-distributed fat. These Lincoln Reds have been grazing on the lush pastures abutting the River Alde for between 4 and 12 years when most of the commercial beef is slaughtered before 20 months. Each carcass has an extra long dry-hang at the shop before being offered to a dedicated waiting list.

Because of their feral nature and delicate frames these lambs are seriously good to eat. They’re very lean and tender; they’re latematuring, which means they’re ready in the autumn; but best of all, they taste fantastic – gamier and stronger in flavour than commercial breeds, their sweet tasting meat is a wonderful thing. If you’re interested in either of these specialist meats, please contact Gerard at gerard@salterandking.co.uk, call 01728 452758, or visit the shop on Aldeburgh High Street. Other meat is available too! You can also buy Salter & King meat on line at www.salterandking.co.uk. Delivery nationwide.

Q&A

with Prue Leith

When did you first fall in love with food? As a student in Paris in the early sixties. I could not believe how much the French thought and talked about food and cooking. How many cookery books do you own? I gave away 2,000 to the Oxford School of Gastronomy and got my collection down to a dozen, but it’s crept up again to a hundred or so. What is the most memorable meal you’ve ever eaten? My wedding lunch. oysters to start, oysters to follow and treacle tart for pud. What do you think will be the next big trend in food and why? It could be insects. I’m serious. They are nutritious, can be delicious, are easy to farm, ecologically sound and could feed the world! Maybe not tomorrow, but I think it will happen.

Many top chefs enjoy a takeaway after a long shift in the kitchen; what is your secret indulgence? Greek yogurt straight from the pot with a drizzle of honey and sprinkling of almonds still in their skins. Which season appeals to you most as a cook? Autumn I think for mushrooms, porcine, game, pumpkins, plums and apples and a bit of spice. What is your ‘go-to’ mid-week supper dish? Grilled mackerel fillets on lentils or rice or mash. Maybe with grilled tomatoes. Having successfully bid for Elizabeth David’s kitchen table at auction in 1994, you described her as ‘the most important cookery writer this century’. Who or what do you see as having the most influence in this century? Sadly, it’s the manufacturers of junk food with their massive advertising budgets to persuade kids to live on fat, sugar and salt.

If you want to hear more about Prue’s fascination with food, come and see her ‘In conversation with Thomasina Miers’ on Saturday afternoon – see pg 43 for more details. Aldeburgh Food & Drink Festival 2018

The Sail Loft – Southwold’s cosmopolitan foodie hideaway Perhaps the best-kept secret in this chic East Suffolk town, The Sail Loft is delightfully off the beaten track, down by the dunes near Southwold’s lifeboat station. With five cosseting bedrooms upstairs and a laid-back stylish café-bar atmosphere, this Londonesque haunt is distinctly all about destination dining. Good food is always on the menu, chef-proprietor Jonathan Nicholson having owned or run some of the county’s best-known places such as The George at Cavendish and Southwold Pier, and galvanising his early career as Marco Pierre White’s sous-chef. Invited to be one of just 20 chefs given the chance to have their own chapter in the county’s new Suffolk Feast cookbook, Jonny’s 10 pages highlight his love of local, seasonal ingredients and artisan food producers on his doorstep. Enjoy one of The Sail Loft’s recipes below or pick up your own copy of Suffolk Feast. One County, Twenty Chefs from your local bookshop (ISBN 978-0993360138 RRP £24.50).

Eggs benedict with locally smoked eel and baby spinach A brunch classic with a difference, replacing the crispy bacon with the best type of smoked fish you can buy. It doesn’t come finer than smoked eel, but cold or hot smoked salmon and trout are cheaper alternatives, and we love to use organic free-range eggs from Maple Farm at Kelsale. (serves 2)

Ingredients 20g salted butter 150ml milk 20g plain flour 2 tbsp wholegrain mustard 1 large handful baby spinach 4 free-range eggs 2 English muffins-split 150g smoked eel fillet, shredded

rec ipe!

To make the mustard sauce, melt the butter in the milk, add the flour and whisk together to a smooth sauce. Stir in the mustard and seasoning to taste. Wash and drain the spinach before wilting down in a hot pan with a little butter and seasoning. Poach the eggs and toast and butter the muffins. Top each half with spinach, smoked eel and a poached egg, finishing with a spoonful of the mustard sauce. Enjoy!

CONNECTING FOOD AND FUEL

We are a national supplier of petrol and diesel, supplying enough fuel for one in four cars on the road. Our fuel goes to oil companies and supermarkets, so you will probably have bought our fuel for your car. We also turn used cooking oil into high quality renewable fuel. By blending small amounts into our diesel, we help to reduce the environmental impact of the diesel we supply.

Come and see us on our stand to find out more about how we turn food waste into biodiesel. We are proud to be supporting the Aldeburgh Food & Drink Festival. www.greenergy.com
