Andalucia –
Sam Clark with Michael Jacobs
The founder of Moro Restaurant and the prominent Hispanist discuss and demonstrate the cooking of Andalucia, a region that is close to both their hearts. Andalucia's fusion of Spanish and Moorish traditions was the inspiration for Sam and Sam Clark's ground-breaking restaurant and their hugely successful Moro cookbooks. The region has since become their adopted home-from-home. Michael Jacobs stumbled on the Andalucian village of Frailes, wrote a book about it – The Factory of Light – and has lived there ever since. He is a member of the Andalucian Academy of Gastronomy and is the first foreign knight of 'The Very Noble and Illustrious Order of the Wooden Spoon'.
