Join Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall, multi award-winning broadcaster, writer and food campaigner for an evening talking all things food to celebrate the publication of his new book High Fibre Heroes. 

Best known for his River Cottage TV series, bestselling books and his passion for food and cookery focused on local, seasonal and ethically produced ingredients, Hugh has reshaped the conversation around how we grow, cook and consume food. Blending culinary creativity with hard-hitting advocacy he has built a huge and popular following. 

Hugh is determined to help us all eat more fibre, and he wants to do that in the simplest, most effective and delicious way possible. In High Fibre Heroes, the king of veg takes 12 of the most inexpensive, recognisable, versatile and readily available vegetables to create 100 easy recipes. These joyful, health-boosting dishes will help you up your fibre count and hit your 30 plants a week in no time at all! 

In his own inimitable style, Hugh will show you just how simple it is to get the fibre you need and what an exciting and delicious experience this can be. Plant-based flavour is yours for the taking! 

This is sure to be an inspiring evening with one of the UK’s most influential voices for food and the environment. Don’t miss this opportunity to see Hugh Fearnely-Whittingstall ‘live’ at Storyhouse for Chester Literature Festival.
