Mad as a Hatter?

 

"However, this bottle was NOT marked 'poison', so Alice ventured to taste it, and finding it very nice, (it had, in fact, a sort of mixed flavour of cherry-tart, custard, pine-apple, roast turkey, toffee, and hot buttered toast) she very soon finished it off."

Most of us would wonder at the magnificence that is Lewis Carroll's description of the shrinking potion marked 'DRINK ME' in Alice's Adventures in Wonderland. Heston Blumenthal however, took it as a challenge. In the first episode of his new channel 4 series "Heston's Feasts" Heston cooks up his interpretation of the Mad Hatter's tea-party.

Strange enough is the 'drink-me' potion (which does, in fact, taste of all the ingredients Alice listed), but his edible garden and mock-turtle soup are, quite frankly, the most amazing culinary creations I have ever seen. Never before have I seen edible soil or heard a chef discussing the use of a -80˚C freezer in cooking. The man is an artist.
