A TASTE of the continent was served up by Salisbury Scouts as they took part in a European-themed cookery contest.
Members of the 8th Salisbury Methodist Church Group based their menu around the cuisine of Spain, with a rustic tomato and garlic broth with poached egg to start, followed by steamed hake in tomato sauce on a bed of rice and peas, finishing with a traditional custard dish.
And their efforts, against six other teams, won them a place in the regional final.
County Scout leader Andy Gould said: “The standard of cooking was excellent this year and although cooked on a standard gas burner used at camp, they delivered restaurant quality dishes."
