La (Agro)dolce Vita

A Guest Newsletter

Good morning from Paris! This week’s newsletter is over on my lovely mate

Ben Lippett

’s page How I Cook. It’s a recipe for agrodolce roast chicken, with some talk about vinegar science and all things sweet and sour.

I love Ben’s work; it’s crystal clear, intelligent recipe writing which is also fun and enjoyable to read. A sharp needle in the dense haystack that is food content on the internet. Please have a read of the piece but make sure you also check out the rest of his excellent newsletter too.

Here’s a photo of us right now in Paris having an 11am beer.

Bon appetite!
