About this listen

 In this episode, Theo is joined by the brilliant Jack Stein, chef director of the Rick Stein Group and a passionate advocate for sustainable seafood. Growing up in Padstow surrounded by fishing boats, fresh crab, and his father's legendary seafood restaurant, Jack's journey has taken him from the kitchens of Michel Bras in France to building a thriving restaurant empire across Cornwall whilst championing British fish and sustainable fishing practices. With deep roots in Cornwall's fishing community and a commitment to preserving culinary traditions, Jack represents the next generation of the Stein legacy. Jack prepares his beloved Cornish Crab Linguine, his mum Jill's favourite dish and a modern twist on a classic Italian recipe. Using sweet Cornish crab meat from local fishermen in Padstow, a simple base of shallots, garlic, tomatoes, lemon juice, and quality olive oil, with a clever addition of gochujang for warmth and depth, and squid fish sauce for that umami punch reminiscent of ancient Roman garum. This dish beautifully encapsulates Jack's cooking philosophy - simple, ingredient-led food that respects tradition whilst embracing global influences and celebrates the incredible seafood landed on Cornwall's shores every day. You can find Jack's full Cornish Crab Linguine recipe on the Filippo Berio website at www.filippoberio.co.uk/theo, and be sure to visit one of the Rick Stein restaurants to experience their commitment to sustainable British seafood.
