"Real food doesn't have ingredients, real food is ingredients." Jamie Oliver
What is the secret behind gourmet cuisine?
Only fresh ingredients will tickle your tastebuds, in ways that can truly delight, and yes there is a secret, one that every gourmet chef will happily explain, but, he or she will say that it happens throughout the preparation, the combining, the heat and the timing.
Fresh ingredients hold a unique chemistry, one of nature’s wonders, brimming with goodness that creates both aroma and flavor. Heat activates essential oils, sugars, fats, and acids, transforming your recipe into something vibrant. As Thomas Keller puts it, you’ve added soul to your dish.
"A recipe has no soul. You, as the cook, must bring soul to the recipe.” Thomas Keller
WHEN WE THINK ABOUT GOURMET FOOD
WHAT DO WE MEAN?
Thomas Keller said it in a few words "Bring Soul to your Recipe". Gourmet food delivers an exquisite variety of tastes, the secret is in freshness, in quality, in knowing the source. Take your time, enjoy every moment in your preparation, and timing, be creative.
01
Whether beef, lamb, pork or chicken or game make sure to buy from sources where you can be sure the animals are from healthy managed environments
02
The source must guarantee freshness, whether fish, crab, lobster, scallops or prawns. The British Isles is home to almost all popular seafood, but check first
03
Look for cheesemakers that offer a full range, plus local cheeses and dairy produce. Choose textures that offer varieties fitting for the occasion
04
Give your fruit a lot of thought, some may be tropical in origin, but equally the presentation can be exotic. Try our UK based international source

By 1910 Edinburgh was already a major financial hub, with strong banking, insurance institutions and law courts.
Young Thomas Campbell grew up among this well-educated prosperous population, he understood gentlemen were often caretakers of land, his genius was to match their pastoral ambitions with gourmet cuts of meat.
From a single shop on Edinburgh's Queen Street the business expanded its interests among the livestock communities through Scotland, the Highlands and the Islands where prime beef was reared. Today, still a family business, animal welfare and husbandry are an integral part of over a century of tradition and mutual respect for the environment.
Campbells Meat offers a selection of delicious gourmet cheeses from Scotland and around the world.
Christmas is just around the corner, but you needn’t panic! Campbells have you covered with their Christmas Hamper Cheeseboard, a superb variety of cheeses available in through their online store, including some cheeseboard classics like Blue Stilton and Camembert.

Choose from up to twenty different flavours of wild British Honey
plus a host of gift pack ideas
“Real food doesn’t have ingredients, real food is ingredients.” Jamie Oliver
Black Bee Honey is named after the British honey bee, which after nearly dying out, is slowly making a comeback. Black Bee Honey, a B Corp Company, is committing 2% of turnover to create 1000 acres of meadow.
Each variety is single-source and British, supporting both our bees and their keepers. And when it comes to the honey, our mantra is ‘the bees know best’. Once the honey is selected, it’s left well alone. Any impurities are simply filtered and the honey is jarred. Just as the bees intended.
Pairing Cheese with Honey
Honey and cheese make a classic pairing, with the sweetness of honey complementing the savory flavors of various cheeses.
Honey enhances the taste of cheeses, especially mild and creamy, sharp blue, aged, or tangy and acidic varieties. It's a simple yet satisfying combination, with the sweetness of honey cutting through the saltiness and richness of the cheese.
