  • A Taste of Higher Education: Exploring a Culinary Arts Degree Through Arts-Based Approaches
    Val Thompson A taste of higher education: exploring a culinary arts degree through arts-based approaches. Thesis submitted in requirement for the degree of PhD The School of Education The University of Sheffield September 2009 Abstract Information about how students experience their first year in higher education is of particular importance to policy makers, institutional managers, and tutors seeking to implement the governmental agenda of widening participation. Experience however, is a complex notion. Bruner (1986) argues that it is impossible to completely know another’s experience. Moreover, he maintains that the articulation of experience is consciously, or unconsciously censored or repressed, and is dependent upon an individual’s access to narrative resources and adequate vocabulary. Re-presenting the articulated experiences of others adds a further layer to this complexity. In this study I take a bricoleur’s perspective to research, utilising a range of arts- based approaches and forms to attempt to meet the challenge of re-presenting the experiences of first year Culinary Arts Management students, focussing on the influences that have shaped their choice of vocational degree course, and the ways in which they negotiate their move into HE level study. Employing a range of approaches which are multi-sensory as well as arts-based, acknowledges and reflects the complexity of life lived and experience shaped by our sensory capacity, and the learning which we accomplish through sight, sound, touch, taste, and smell. What our senses also enable us to connect to, feel, and express, is emotion, imagination, and memory. Taking a multi-sensory approach to explore research questions therefore, exploits ways of understanding and meaning-making which we utilise in everyday life.

Beard nurtured a genera- tion of American chefs and cookbook authors who have changed the way we eat. James Andrew Beard was born on May 5, 1903, in Portland, Oregon, to Elizabeth and John Beard. His mother, an independent English woman passionate about food, ran a boarding house. His father worked at Portland’s Customs House. The family spent summers at the beach at Gearhart, Oregon, fishing, gathering shellfish and wild berries, and cooking meals with whatever was caught. He studied briefly at Reed College in Portland in 1923, but was expelled. Reed claimed it was due to poor scholastic performance, but Beard maintained it was due to his homosexuality. Beard then went on the road with a theatrical troupe. He lived abroad for several years study- ing voice and theater but returned to the United States for good in 1927. Although he kept trying to break into the theater and movies, by 1935 he needed to supplement what was a very non-lucra- Biography tive career and began a catering business.

  • The Historical Collections of the Guildhall Library Transcript
    The Historical Collections of the Guildhall Library Transcript Date: Wednesday, 24 October 2012 - 1:00PM Location: Museum of London 24 October 2012 The Historical Collections Of the Guildhall Library Dr Peter Ross It is the intention of this lecture to narrate something of the history of Guildhall Library and its collections with specific reference to one area in particular – the material relating to cookery, food and drink. In the past, this collection might not have been regarded as worthy of serious attention or description; with the possible exception of material relating to individual food writers, like that of Elizabeth David. But very recent research by my colleague, Val Hart, has begun to throw some light upon the cookery texts donated by a number of individuals in the latter part of the nineteenth century, donations which really form the foundation of this extraordinary collection. Indeed, perhaps the most extraordinary fact about this collection is that the great majority of the books, now numbering more than 10,000, have been acquired through donation and bequest and that only about 10% or less have been purchased. As I hope to demonstrate in this lecture, such a collection is strictly outside the original acquisitions policy of what is essentially a library of London history. But I hope too that I can go some way towards showing that what has been until relatively recently, a ‘Cinderella’ collection deserves its place on the shelves alongside other important collections such as those of the London livery companies, the Sir Thomas More and Charles Lamb collections and, indeed, the Gresham Music collection.

Since then, in the UK, Michele Roux from the 2 Michelin Starred La Gavroche, has had an excellent televi- sion programme on the BBC training young people with no background in catering to be waiters, sommeliers and maître d‟s. The main lesson is to teach them to serve with- out being servile; to enjoy service without being servants. The most difficult lesson was to carve, at table, for customers who included our illustrious editor. The unhappy trainee tried to persuade Pam that a rib of beef was in fact lamb but as a retired farmer she was not convinced! I commend the Roux family, who have a long association with this Society, for their efforts in raising standards and training the next generation to become part of a growing industry.

  • The Cream of the Culinary World Unite to Make a Difference Submitted By: Accent Press Monday, 23 May 2005
    The Cream of the Culinary World Unite To Make A Difference Submitted by: Accent Press Monday, 23 May 2005 Accent Press Ltd are delighted to announce the publication of East meets West EAST MEETS WEST is a celebrity cookbook in support of the tsunami victims in Indonesia and Sri Lanka. Featuring recipes by the cream of the international culinary world and articles by top wine writers including; Nigella Lawson, Jamie Oliver, Gary Rhodes, Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall, Keith Floyd, Ainsley Harriot, Rick Stein, Antony Worral Thompson, Ken Hom and Jancis Robinson. EAST MEETS WEST developed from the reaction of two ordinary British women, Barbara Jayson and Jenny de Montfort to the shocking Boxing Day disaster. Having met several years ago in Indonesia they knew they had to do something and decided to create a truly international cookbook to raise funds for mother and baby charities in Indonesia and Sri Lanka. Without knowing a single celebrity chef they set about contacting potential contributors and, having received a commitment from Nigella Lawson, the project snowballed. The book is a superb quality, full-colour, 256 page hardback priced £14.99, fully illustrated throughout and is sure to be the biggest cookbook of 2005. Over 9,000 copies have been sold in the first week with a third of these going to overseas distributors. Within a day of publication an enquiry for 15,000 copies was received from one of the main UK book clubs. All main High Street retailers are stocking the book which is also available via Amazon. EAST MEETS WEST is published by Accent Press, an independent publishing company based in Wales.

  • Disturbing Objects
    Disturbing Objects Disturbing Objects : Making, Eating and Watching Food in Popular Culture and Performance Practice. Jenny Lawson (University of Leeds) I like baking cakes. I have been baking cakes for a long time. I try to take a cake with me wherever I go. My cakes have travelled to Lancaster, Manchester, Bracknell, Leeds, Sheffield, Surrey, Norwich, Gothenburg and Ulverston. I am going to bake you a cake and I am going to give it to you in a moment. A Journey through Food I love food; making it, eating it and now I also love watching it. My performance practice investigates food in contemporary culture, and this article is an attempt to journey through food, cooking objects and my practice, both contextualising and creatively documenting my engagements with cakes, kitchens and the dinner table. In this paper, my documentary elements are – as above – in italics. Cooking materials and foodstuffs play an essential role in everyday food practices and contribute to the formation of identities, relationships and socially and culturally accepted behaviour. My interest lies with the relationship between women and food. If we look at the influences of popular culture in the current climate, for instance the rise in food and lifestyle television programming and celebrity cooks (of which there are considerably more male than female), these popular food performances can be seen as indicative of contemporary attitudes governing food and female domestic practice. I am proposing that there is a space for performance practice to address the ramifications of popular cultural food performances to explore our relationship with food and its materiality in contemporary culture.
