BONUS EPISODE: “Capsule Pantrys” & Unreasonably Delicious Food with Anna Jones
11th Mar 2024
Anna Jones is on the podcast today, one of my absolute favourite cooks! Her food and ethos around injecting flavour are so aligned to my way of eating and it was a joy to host her on the pod.
Anna is a cook, writer and regarded as the voice of modern vegetarian cooking. She’s written favourites such as “One: Pot, Pan, Planet”, “A Modern Way to Eat” and many more that are always on a foodies kitchen counter.
In her latest book “Easy Wins”, Anna takes 12 hero ingredients that are guaranteed to make your food taste great, such as lemons, olive oil, onions, peanut butter, mustard, tahini. Most of you ‘Doctors Kitchen Foodies’ probably have these in your fridge or cupboards. And Anna has masterfully created meals that use them to boost the flavour and versatility of homecooking. The so called “Capsule Pantry”, which we explain at the start of the podcast is an awesome concept. And I’m going to start thinking about what would be in my own capsule pantry!
I hope you enjoy this wonderful conversation and you’ll be able to catch me cooking with Anna on our YouTube channel too!
