This year, we're celebrating M&S Farm To Foodhall and the stories behind their incredible produce. Over the next few months, we'll cook with a selection of M&S ingredients and you'll learn about the farmers, sourcing standards and M&S's dedication to proper provenance. And, of course, this year's Farm to Foodhall ingredients are all available on our M&S Shop.
Made in the heart of Somerset, the Clapp family have been making butter for M&S for 40 years. They make smooth and rich cream that is produced by local cows that graze on West Country grass. It’s then churned in old-fashioned barrels to produce the renowned creamy texture, and studded with flavours to make the Collection Farmhouse range you know and love.
This month, we're making the most of M&S hand-rolled butter, and Tom Kerridge has written some recipes that'll really butter your biscuit. Slice a creamy disk of any flavoured butter to add instant complexity to any dish. We really love it with crispy chicken thighs and tender, spicy baked cod loin.
“This is not just food – that’s just a nice line on a M&S advert isn’t it. Well, that’s what I thought – then I met their farmers. Turns out there’s quite a lot I didn’t know.”
M&S partner and celebrity chef, Tom Kerridge, traces the journey of incredible M&S ingredients straight from the British farms where they are grown and reared, right to your table via Ocado.
