I Made Wine Battered Fish and Chips
I wanted to settle the debate once and for all: who does sparkling wine better - the Brits or the French?
And what better way to conduct such a serious piece of wine research than by turning two of the world’s finest sparkling wines into fish and chip batter?
Fred put my questionable chef skills to the test with a little help from Brighton’s oldest fish and chip shop. We taste them, cook with them and make a royal mess in the process.
But which makes the crispiest, poshest and juiciest battered fish - English sparkling wine or Champagne?
There’s only one sensible way to find out… 🍾🐟🍟
