Hosted by Ryan Chetiyawardana, this first episode of Studio Lates brings together leading craft experts Gregorie Marshall (Blackthorn Salt), Maddy Norval (Dornoch Craft Vinegar), and Angela Clutton (food writer, cook, and presenter). Together, they’ll explore how these everyday ingredients are being redefined through artisanal techniques.

The panel will dive into the key differences between mass-produced and craft salt and vinegar, discuss the growing resurgence of vinegar driven by fermentation and health trends, and share their favourite ways to use these ingredients.

Salt & Vinegar are ingrained into our language about seasoning foods — especially in the UK — but they’re often just regarded as blank ingredients to use from a taste perspective when they are actually powerhouses in flavour.
