Behind the Pass with Harriet Mansell - Part 2: Crystallisation

Having learnt more about Harriet's ethos around wild foods in her previous episode of Behind the Pass, here she discusses a more specific technique that she uses in her restaurant to preserve the flavours of wild flowers she's picked - the art of crystallisation. Watch on as Harriet demonstrates the process before showing us how she uses the likes of crystallised marigolds and meadowsweet in her menus.
