Coffee, Spice and Fearless Cooking
At Home for this episode is Stephanie Fuccio, and her love of food, coffee and flavour shines through in our conversation!
Steph is a bold and fearless cook, even though she only started cooking at home a couple of years ago. She generously shares what she learned along the way, with brilliant tips ranging from overcoming 'feeling lazy' to upgrading cheap ingredients, and from using frozen garlic to lemon & butter pasta. We also discuss the importance of texture, the Copenhagen restaurant scene (and how it pushed her into homecooking), the culinary delights of Vietnam and the unlikely places she's found the best decaf.
Tune in to find out how fun it can be to become 'a person who cooks' - Stephanie's bold energy and adventurous enthusiasm are infectious!

Keeping it real
For this episode I get in the kitchen with Sophia Maslowski for a down to earth conversation about keeping it real and realistic.
We chat all things batch cooking, flavour shortcuts, flexible meal planning, and the joy of eating good food. Our conversation gets into embracing simplicity, leftovers and a good-enough mindset, and share our holistic view on eating for nourishment, and remind ourselves that it’s okay to mess up in the kitchen (just roll with it and maybe turn that burnt stew into a smoky soup!)
We also chat about the life-saving qualities of potatoes and coleslaw, foodie travel adventures, and collecting cookbooks.
A spirited episode covering a lot of ground, from the practical to the philosophical, and plenty in between!
