โI am unapologetic about being a home cook rather than a chef.
Real cooking, the sort that goes on in homes, does not have to be tricksy or difficult. A dish of chicken poached with leeks and carrots definitely isnโt fancy. But it tastes good, and feels essentially nourishing, to both body and soul, to cook and eat.
I want you to feel that Iโm there with you, in the kitchen, as you cook. My books are the conversations we might be having.โ
