The Boy Who Bakes

By Edd Kimber

All things baked. Recipes, bakery recommendations, behind the scenes and more

Edd Kimber is the undoubted OG of the Bake Off family - the original winner of the Great British Bake Off is baking royalty and his recipes stand up to his accolades. My absolute go-to for baking tips and advice.

The Flavor Files

By Nik Sharma

A Cooking Course in Food Science to Make More Flavorful and Easier Meals in Your Kitchen Written by a 2X James Beard, Finalist and 3X IACP, Multi-Award Winning, Best-Selling Cookbook Author and Photographer, Chef, and Molecular Biologist Nik Sharma.

Nik Sharma has long been one of my biggest cooking influences. His recipes are inspired by his heritage, with Indian and Californian influences, and flavour is always at the centre (thanks in part to his molecular biology background - his explanations on the science of flavour are fascinating).
