Bonus Scran: Previewing the Scottish Game Fair
Summer in Scotland can mean one thing for a lot of people - the chance to get out and about and enjoy the fairs and agricultural shows that are taking place across the country. One such popular annual event is The Scottish Game Fair.
Taking place at Scone Palace between 3 and 5 July, it celebrates Scotland's rich countryside heritage through fishing demonstrations, various animal competitions, interactive events, the Scottish Venison Cookery Theatre and much more.
I wanted to hear more about what visitors could expect, so I spoke to the cookery theatre curator Daniela Forbes, who is a chef and food stylist. Sarah Rankin also joined the podcast.
Sarah is one of the chefs who is appearing at this year's event and is a MasterChef finalist and food writer.
I asked them about how they got involved with the Scottish Game Fair, how they go about curating and planning the demonstrations and why venison is something we don't always reach for in preparing our regular meals.
