Macho food
Is there such a thing?

Macho Food” – is there such a thing? Back in 1967, Len Deighton the thriller writer certainly thought so when he wrote The Action Cook Book, packed with manly meat recipes, it’s recently been reissued and is enjoying something of a revival. So how many men still prefer steak to tofu and how much have palates moved on? Chef Andrew Nutter and comedian Kevin Hayes share their food views with Jenni.



Action Cookbook by Len Deighton is published by Harper Perennial ISBN: 978-0007305872
