River Cottage Season 12 Episode release dates & where to watch

1. Veal

Hugh is trying to change the opinion of veal, which has recently been avoided in Britain on the grounds of poor welfare. He visits a local farm that is producing welfare friendly veal animals to explore the problem further. Armed with culinary veal delights he then heads to Taunton farmers market to put the welfare friendly meat to the public vote.

2. Leftovers

Hugh wants to run a 'Leftovers Night' at the River Cottage Canteen. Together with chef Tim Maddams they make canapes from leftover fish, gnocchi from roast potatoes and puddings from breadcrumbs.

3. Cabbages and Slugs

Hugh learns slugs have been scoffing the soft cabbages so he plans some drastic action. Snails have long been established on the River Cottage menu, so Hugh wonders if he can turn slugs into a culinary hit too. Hugh's goat has had a phantom pregnancy but because her milk is flowing, he takes a little in order to make a cheesecake.

4. Strawberry Fair Finale

River Cottage is celebrating the strawberry this summer with a massive 500-person strawberry fete. In preparation, Hugh and the River Cottage gardeners plant strawberries in every available space.
