DAY 6 – Heston Blumenthal’s Ultimate Breakfast

DAY 6 – Heston Blumenthal’s Ultimate Breakfast

Take breakfast seriously with this irresistible weekend treat

There’s no doubting that, on certain occasions, a big cooked breakfast is the only thing that will do to get your morning going. So, we would be remiss if we didn’t give a spot in our Breakfast Week countdown to Heston Blumenthal’s Ultimate Breakfast. Eggs, bacon, toast, tomatoes and mushrooms are all present and correct – but, always controversial, Heston eschews the important fry-up staples of sausages, baked beans and fried bread. Is that allowed? We do agree on something, though, as he asserts that the only drink which will do is… tea. No argument there. Heston suggests an Earl Grey with this mighty feed, but we’re going to plump for an English Breakfast instead. Rich, full-bodied and malty, it’s a Great British tradition for a reason.
