VALE…..PETER RUSSELL- CLARKE 4 TH JULY 2025.

A country boy who had no formal seconadary education, who went on to become a chef, an author, a TV presenter long before it was necessary to be pretentious and self obsessed to be a success. Peter Russell-Clarke was a witty, caring chef who promoted the use of simple fresh ingredients who shared recipes with the community which could be easily reproduced in the home kitchen. Some time ago I was very fortunate to acquire a copy of Peter Russell- Clarkes Food Encyclopedia from Churchill's Lifeline shop. I feel really honoured to have been influenced by the written words of the likes of Peter Russell- Clarke and the late Margaret Fulton.
