If I had to some up my philosophy on food in a couple of sentences I would really struggle. Anyone who knows me or has been to one of my cooking classes knows that once I start talking about food and cooking I find it very difficult to stop because it touches on every aspect of my life – my childhood, my work, my passion, my relaxation, my holidays, my family, my gardening, my beliefs etc etc.
