Comedian-who-cooks George Egg wants you to play with your food – to make a Big Mac out of mackerel, dahl out of baked beans and brownies out of Twiglets. Talking to comedian, satirist and writer Kiri Pritchard-McLean, Egg will share some of the stories and snob-snubbing mash-ups featured in The Snack Hacker, his new cookbook that breaks all the rules.
Beloved by everyone from fellow funnyman James Acaster to chef Nigella Lawson (really), the book is a joyful celebration of food and a reminder that cooking shouldn’t be serious. Whether you’re more crabstick than caviar, or prefer a Beaufort to a Babybel, this event is where the culinary high and low brow collide.
