Best of the West

All great foods come from particular soil and climate conditions - what the French call terroir - but great cooking depends on the inventiveness of cooks, so while you have to go to Cornwall to appreciate the county's ingredients at their best, you can always try out some Cornish recipes at home. Here are a few examples to tempt you, as tested by food writer Claire Hopley.
Saffron Bread
Thunder and Lightening Splits
Fisherman's Pie
Crab and Seafood Pancakes
Cornish Pasties
