Dietary & Wellness

Delicious first. Everything else follows.

I spent years watching people apologise for eating "healthy" — as if the absence of something automatically meant the presence of virtue. That's not cooking. That's compromise.

My recipes start from flavour and work backwards to the label. If something is vegan, it's because the ingredients are better that way, not because I removed something. A great chickpea dish isn't a lesser version of a meat dish. It's its own thing.

Philosophy

A dietary label should describe a recipe, not diminish it.
