Civilised food – with Fuchsia Dunlop

And we’re back. After almost two years the Full English podcast is back!
I've been busy writing a book: The Full English: The Ways We Eat and Why (versobooks.com/en-gb/products/3312-the-full-en…) is out now with Verso.
We’re kicking off this new season of the podcast with a truly exceptional guest. Fuchsia Dunlop is ‘The English person with a Chinese stomach’ (theguardian.com/food/2025/nov/20/how-fuchsia-d…); she is a one woman gateway to the infinities of Chinese cuisine and it’s deep traditions of culinary culture.
Her new book Five Tastes: The Magic of Flavour in a Chinese Kitchen (penguin.co.uk/books/443156/five-tastes-by-dunl…) is out now with Penguin.
