Chefs Madeline Bonvini-Hamel and Ross Pike, who run the British Larder in Bromeswell, are to create a number of Christmas-themed snacking items for the department store chain.
The news follows on from last week’s (16 September) appearance on BBC One’s A Taste of Britain, where the pair showcased a Dingley Dell pork tasting platter, which is also sold in Selfridges.
The TV programme explores food specialities from around Britain.
The centrepiece of the new Selfridges range is a golden goose egg – a Scotch egg made from goose meat that has been sprayed gold.
Retailing at £7.50, the egg has been marked out by the store as one of its top-five Christmas sellers across all departments.
Other products include a smoked venison and Scotch egg, a smoked ham-hoc Scotch egg, and the partridge olive, which is in the style of a Scotch egg but comprises partridge meat wrapped around an olive.
Scotch Egg Challenge
The Punch Taverns leaseholders starting working with Selfridges after they won the 2013 Scotch Egg Challenge, which is held at Young’s pub the Ship, in Wandsworth, annually.
Ross Pike said: “It’s great to be able to work with Selfridges on this new seasonal range.
“Our products will be going into the London, Manchester and Birmingham stores, so we’re going to be extremely busy.
“The Dingley Dell pork tasting platter is one of our best-sellers at the pub – it’s a sharing platter but some customers like to have it as a separate meal.”
“The BBC wanted to showcase a pork dish from the county, and with us literally being a stone’s throw from Dingley Dell pork farm, it was a no brainer that they came to us.”
“Straight after the programme aired, we had quite a few extra bookings come in – so that’s been a bonus as well.”
