Meet the Ingreedies

Our band of intrepid food explorers – the ‘Ingreedies’ – are all experts in a particular type of food. They’re on a mission to inspire kids by telling them all about the history of different dishes and where ingredients come from.

Experts on a mission

The Ingreedies are fascinated about food and its place in the World, and they’re on a mission to share their food facts and recipes with budding young foodies. Like why Russians pickle things, and why Brazilians have a sweet tooth. How ginger grows, and what the Egyptians did with coriander. How old are the oldest noodles, and how hot is the hottest chilli. What Indonesians have for breakfast, and what astronauts have for tea.
