Heston Blumenthal revolutionsed the perception of British food the world over. Here are just a few ways that he pushed the envelope, from creating The Fat Duck to TV shows such as In Search of Perfection and Heston's Feasts.
His approach to flavour, scientific methodology and desire for the best shines through and remains an inspiration for home cooks and chefs alike, affecting how we eat and products we buy.
