Set sail for more adventures in food as Rick Stein embarks on a culinary tour of the Mediterranean. Inspired by good food that stays in the memory for a long time, sometimes forever, Rick Stein visits islands and places that radiate a vibrant sense of individuality through their spirit, history and food. From spices and perfumes to the lavish use of wine and herbs, Mediterranean food is a large culinary mosaic full of colour, taste and smell formed by the Arabs, Greeks, Italians, Spanish and Turks. Join Rick in this 6 part series as he travels from Corsica to Crete and right through the very cradle of cooking in the Western world.
