Jay Rayner and a panel of food experts are in Bath offering tips on soft cheese and bain-marie cooking. Jay is joined by chefs, cooks and food writers Sophie Wright, Jocky Petrie and Lerato Umah-Shaylor, along with resident food historian Dr Annie Gray.

The panellists discuss their favourite cold soups, explain the purpose of different types of salt, and share the best things to pair with soft cheese. Meanwhile, Annie Gray provides a brief history of cheese production in the UK.

Later on, Jay chats to local cheesemonger Hugh Padfield to discuss the unique history, flavour profile and method of producing Bath soft cheese.
