Included
The Time Travellers Kitchen continues to travel through British culinary history, this year stopping in 1940 with the introduction of rationing during the Second World War. Uncover the truth behind the Dig for Britain propaganda as Alex and Peter prepare meals of the period. How did the war impact food supplies? Did it matter if you were in a town or in the country? What could you buy on the black market? Can carrots really help you see in the dark? And did we really fend for ourselves, or did we rely on imports? Explore the myths and realities of rationing during the Second World War and how it still impacts food culture.
