California Prune Board ambassador Peter Sidwell has unveiled a host of recipes to inject some much-needed Californian sunshine into the UK summer.

Peter explains: “I love to innovate in the kitchen using high quality ingredients to develop delicious dishes. California Prunes offer sweetness to savoury cuisine and sweet desserts while adding nutritional value.
“California Prunes work well with so many different flavours, from zingy ginger and succulent pork to creamy cheeses and earthy nuts, all of which I’ve incorporated into my latest recipes.’
Peter has developed six easy-to-follow recipes in a three-part video series, Peter Sidwell’s Kitchen Summer Cooking with California Prunes, which is available now on YouTube.
