Tuscany (26 July 1994)

Pigeons with risotto, pork and beans, wild boar casserole

Keith cooks pigeons with risotto, a dish he's apparently never made before. It looks like a lot of butter compared to the amount of rice. Nobody tests it, also why don't they set up the table so that Keith's shadow doesn't fall on it? Keith's wife has chopped the vegetables for him, apparently.

Next a cheese race, then Keith starts cooking sausages in tomato sauce and beans, which he claims is different from baked beans bought in the shop. Again nobody tastes it.

Next Keith makes osso buco, veal with a bone, in a kitchen, using veal stock from a professional chef. Yet again nobody samples it.

Finally Keith goes hunting, then he finds a selection of local ingredients and makes a casserole of wild boar.

[This is a review of an episode of a Keith Floyd cookery programme.]
