Stallholder visit
London Smoke and Cure was started in a back garden in the Triangle by Ross, but we went to visit them in their spanking new smokery in Streatham, tucked away in an atmospheric cobbled back street opposite The Hideaway in Streatham, surrounded by busy units of every kind. Now a team of four, we were greeted by Ross (top left) and Simon (master charcutier) behind these big grey doors, which open up to reveal a fully functional modern smokery, complete with a cute loft office. We got to watch the salmon being prepared by Simon for smoking with juniper flavoured sea salt, got a tour of the temperature & humidity controlled area, which was full of maturing bacon, duck breasts and charcuterie, and checked out the myriad of other equipment necessary in a modern smokery. We also got to model their hats. Find London Smoke and Cure at the market every Saturday, with an extensive range of smoked and cured products as well as cheeses, and you might meet the other members of the team there, Ben and Jamie.
