Introducing Tempus Charcuterie

“In order to make great Charcuterie, you have to start with great pigs”
This is the philosophy of Tempus Charcuterie, an award-winning Charcuterie house founded by Tom Whitaker (Masterchef Finalist 2011) and Dhruv Baker (Masterchef Winner 2010). Tom & Dhruv started making charcuterie as a hobby born of their shared passion for flavour and their, near obsessive, focus on ingredients. After years of trying various heritage breeds they eventually chose the Large Black as their pig of choice:
“We work extremely closely with a small number of highly specialised and passionate farmers to ensure that we have a sustainable supply of these amazing animals raised to the very highest welfare standards. We also take the animals at a much larger size than standard, commercially farmed pigs (better flavour and a much more dense layer of fat which is preferable for our style of charcuterie.) The results, we believe, are well worth all the extra care, attention and effort from everyone involved from field to fork.”
We at Cambscuisine tried the meats on offer and were blown away by their subtlety, flavour and sheer melt-in-the-mouth appeal. We are delighted to be able to offer an English Charcuterie board comprised of 4 different styles from Tempus. The pigs and cattle are reared in nearby Norfolk, Bedfordshire and even a prison in Lincolnshire.
If you’re feeling decadent, a selection of British Cheeses can be added. Please ask for details of our vegetarian mezze board.
