The celebrity chef Gino D’Acampo is on a nationwide hunt to celebrate home cooked dishes with incredible family heritage for a brand new ITV series called “There’s No Taste like Home”, which airs later this year.
The programme makers have asked us to help find local Suffolk cooks with great family recipes to feature in the series. So tell everyone you know who can cook, then send your name and recipe idea to us. We will pass it on to them. Alternatively get in touch directly using the details on the flyer attached to this post.
Gino will be travelling to 30 different parts of the UK for the series. In each show he’ll meet three home cooks, each boasting a treasured recipe that has been passed down through their family for generations.
Gino and the viewers will learn the secrets of these treasured family recipes and discover the fascinating family stories, first hand, of how they have evolved over the generations.
Gino says:
“Forget your fancy restaurant fare, I want to taste good, honest, home cooked food - just like Mamma used to make! I was inspired by my Grandfather who was head chef for a cruise ship company. His favourite dish, and something I make for my children today, was gnocchi al pomodoro. I can still remember the smells, and the taste of it. This dish made me fall in love with cooking and become a chef. I am convinced there are hundreds more fantastic stories and family dishes just like mine out there..”
