Summer is Served

WITH SAM COOPER

This summer, we’ve asked some of our favourite foodies to share a little of their expertise with us, as we celebrate the sunniest season with a series of mouthwatering recipes, adventures and more.

A chef all his working life, Sam Cooper is dedicated to food in a way he finds hard to put into words. A fermenter, photographer and a #1 Sunday Times bestselling author, Sam’s ethos is to explore flavour in the most sustainable way possible, using the fruits of season as creatively as possible. We met Sam at his Welsh farm and joined him for an afternoon of foraging and delicious adventure.

“It’s hard to pick just one summer memory, but in recent years, it’s been watching the sunset over the sea during a summer BBQ at the farm, the smoke keeping the midges at bay. Then spending the night under the stars in the shepherd’s hut at the farm, Ffosygrafel Isaf, with a content and full stomach.”
