Welcome
to Peter Jordan’s Tasty Mushroom Partnership website.
Peter Jordan’s interest in the
countryside, and especially in mushrooms, has been life-long. From
1984 to 1994, Peter and his wife Valerie ran a pub and restaurant
in rural Norfolk: the Lord Nelson, Burnham Market. The Lord Nelson
became famous throughout the country for its exotic wild mushroom
dishes.
Peter now devotes his time to running ’The Tasty Mushroom Partnership’,
first set up to promote his video ’The Collectors’ Guide to Wild Mushrooms’.
This highly successful video is now also available in DVD format with
additional material. There is also a New Wild Mushroom Identification
Guide DVD which makes an ideal companion to the book or the Foray
Guide Cards. Either can be ordered by using the site order form.
Peter has appeared on television with chefs Gary Rhodes, Brian Turner
and Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall, and he can be heard regularly on
Radio Norfolk. Peter and Valerie are also familiar faces at food fairs,
where they enthusiastically promote ’The Tasty Mushroom Partnership’
and all aspects of mushroom hunting.
Following
the first successful book published in 1995 Peter has written a new
book which was launched in September 2006. Entitled ‘A field guide
to the edible mushrooms of Britain and Europe’ published by New Holland,
the book contains over 300 new photographs taken by Peter Henley and
Peter Jordan and gives all the information you need for successful
hunting as well as some useful cooking hints.
You can find it in bookshops around the country or order a signed
copy on this website.
We continue to offer Forays so keep an eye on the ‘What’s On Page’
The 2008 initial programme in now released but there will be other
dates to be added early summer to cover local events as they are booked.
We also offer a wide range of products for the
enthusiast easily obtained from us on mail order. Many of these
make ideal presents.
Good luck with you hunting and we hope you enjoy
