I'm a long-term expat who has been kicking around, mostly, the third world for the last 18 years doing my best to create good meals with what I find, wherever I am.
What is the strangest food you have ever eaten?
Whole, boiled goat head, chopped into little pieces with a bush knife on traditional wooden platters. It was dark, it was my first night on a rural Swazi homestead. It was OK, except for the hairy bits.
What do you cook when home alone?
rice with kim chee
Your most treasured kitchen possession:
all the little serving bowls I've accumulated over the years.
