The next stop on our 2009 tour took us to the SECC in Glasgow for the BBC Good Food Show. This was the first  year we had been at this show, and it was a show which we all enjoyed.

Scottish Smoked Salmon Crostini with Savoury Cranachan

Simon Woodhouse brought two new recipies to this show and both were extremely popular and went down really well with all the visitors who watched his demonstration and tried a sample. He prepared Scottish Smoked Salmon Crostini With Savoury Cranachan and Truly Irresistible Aberdeen Angus Steak With Butternut, Apples and Onions and a Watercress Sauce.

As well as Simon’s recipies we also had a variety of different Co-operative products to give samples of throughout the show. These included Scottish Smoked Salmon with Cream Cheese and Oatcakes, Truly Irresistible Moroccan Topped Houmous with Breadsticks, Lockerbie and Mull of Kintyre Cheddar Cheeses, Smoothies, Truly Irresistible Raspberry Crush, Truly Irresistible Crisps and Scottish Shortbread.

We also had the wine team from head office who gave out samples of Co-operative wine throughout the day.

The highlight of this show for me was meeting some very famous chefs. I met the Hairy Bikers and the one
