Clean the Sea (Glan Na Mara)

Clean the Sea (Glan Na Mara)

Calum: "I'm just going to make this muscle butter, which is basically 50:50 mussels and butter. Hot, hot, hot. The title's in Gaelic called 'Glan Namara' which basically means clean the sea. And it's inspired by a man called Dave McKay, who spent a lot of his career cleaning all the shorelines around Scotland, basically. He was a marine environmentalist.'


Calum: "These scallops have actually just been picked up coming down for the competition. Some sea spaghetti as well, some celeriac purée, some muscles and cockles and things like that as well."
