I couldn’t have been happier than to chat with the brilliant Itamar Srulovic of Honey & Co. restaurants, London, about my new book VEGETABLES, in the company of 100 people from around the world who had signed up to join us.
We talked about everything from how I started writing to creating my writing home here on Substack, talking about how the book developed, its structure and got under the bonnet of various recipes from the book.
Due to technical tediums, the video isn’t a split screen of Itamar and I, but for many that will be a merciful relief.
I hope you enjoy it as much as we did.
