NOTES FROM A CHAOTIC KITCHEN

Welcome to daily life in a chaotic, well-used kitchen…..
A constantly busy, always evolving space: full of cooking, eating and creating (dinner, treats, mess), for work and for play, for family and friends.
Let me introduce myself and my family:

  • A Food and Recipe Consultant who is ‘never knowingly under-catered’, I’ll whip up a five-minute muffin mix at a moment’s notice. I’m constantly creating, evaluating and tasting, always cooking, eating and learning something new
  • Long-suffering Hub, who just wants a clutter-free kitchen and peace and quiet. Happiest in the garden. He grows, I cook and preserve
  • Eldest Cheffy Son and his Pastry-chef girlfriend, who cook catering quantities of restaurant quality food at every opportunity
  • Protein & carb-obsessed younger Student Son, currently at uni. Loves food, but cooking not his forte - student survival skills ongoing
I’ll share the secrets of my busy kitchen: favourite meals, creative cooking, feasts around the table and at the well-used snack station. From achievable basics and student hacks to chef's tips and aspirational ideas. I'll share my learning and experiences to make the most of our meals.
We all eat to live. Let me help you live to eat.

Share my learning and experiences to make the most of your meals too.

Yorkshire Puds
Loving the January blog Jan. I definitely have the January blues and the picture of the yorkshire puddings most definitely cheered me up. Please can we have the recipe and cooking tips xx
The Guild of Fine Food course sounds interesting, please tell us how it goes.
It's interesting that you mention air fryers, I've been in two minds about getting one as I'm very good at buying gadgets and then not using them. I'd love to hear more about how you get on with it.
With two students at university I'd love to know what the basic spices you would recommend our young people should have in their cupboard.
Looking forward to Feb's blog x
