Jay Rayner hosts this week's culinary panel show from Tamworth in Staffordshire. Joining Jay this week are Lerato, Sophie Wright, Dr Annie Gray and panel first-timer Richard Bertinet.

They discuss aphrodisiac foods – is there such a thing? What would the panel suggest as an ideal Valentine’s Day cheese, and how to guarantee a rising vegan pavlova. En-route they touch on the origins of Apres-Ski including how to make the best hot chocolate to warm the cockles.

The team also chew over pickles with the help of local pickler, Julian Bonser: the history of pickling, the difference between vinegar and brine, their favourite pickles, and how to encourage a listener’s teens to try them.
