Jay Rayner presents the final episode in the current series of The Kitchen Cabinet from Clare College, Cambridge.

Tackling the audience's culinary concerns are: food-writer, broadcaster, and Cambridge-local Tim Hayward; renowned Michelin star chef and patron at London restaurant Murano, Angela Hartnett; The Kitchen Cabinet's resident food historian Dr Annie Gray; and the 2011 Masterchef-winner, originally from Wisconsin, Tim Anderson.

In the grand setting of Clare College the panel discuss traditional feasting rituals and are surprised to find members of the audience have eaten swan.

The panel also reminisce about their days of student cooking and the worst thing they have ever cooked, which finds Tim Anderson rummaging through rubbish bins. He suggests 'toast on beans' as his own take on a staple student dish and Dr Annie Gray explains the virtues of the toastie-machine.

The team take questions on whether granite can improve your baking, how to use up all those post Christmas cheeses, and what really constitutes 'fasting' - eating very little or eating nothing at all?

Japanese food-specialist Tim Anderson talks about Japanese cuisine beyond sushi and how to eat it at home, and the team look at some of the earliest references to Japanese food in British culture.
