Trifle (S02E08)

In the series finale, Heston tackled the classic trifle. His adventure began with a Bird's trifle, which didn’t quite meet his expectations. To delve deeper into the dish's history, he sought out food historian Ivan Day. Together, they crafted a version of syllabub—the foundational element of English trifle—by milking a cow directly into a bowl of cider. Ivan provided insights into how trifle has transformed since its 16th-century origins into the dessert we know today.
