At Home with The Intuitive Cook

• Flavours, Failures, and Finding Joy

  In this episode I sit down with freelance journalist and home-cook-in-training Elle Hunt. Known for her articulate and thoughtful writing in The Guardian, Elle talks about her personal journey of learning to cook and the mindset shift that got her into the kitchen. She shares candid insights about how living alone and dealing with work burnout led her to see food as more than just fuel.From self-proclaimed terrible cook to actually enjoying preparing her own meals, she talks about how she got started by experimenting with simple recipes and building a relationship with reliable cookbook authors, that led her to find confidence in her cooking abilities. Our conversation also touches on the importance of having essential ingredients on hand, the value of trying new recipes for personal growth, and how cooking fits into her life as a home-working freelancer. We also discuss food culture and perfectionism and how that shapes our attitudes, in cooking and beyond. The episode is full of relatable stories and crash-tested practical tips - a goldmine for anyone looking to explore or improve their own home cooking skills. ⭐ SHOW NOTES theintuitivecook.co.uk/podcast-ep18 ⭐ CONNECT WITH ELLE website: ellehunt.net article: Can't cook, won't cook? article: Who needs recipes? ⭐ CONNECT WITH KATERINA website theintuitivecook.co.uk instagram @intuitive.cook youtube @intuitivecook community No Recipe Club contact [email protected] ⭐ LINKS Books & recipes mentioned: The Roasting Tin (Rukmini Iyer) One Pot, Pan, Planet (Anna Jones) Cook As You Are (Ruby Tandoh) Alison Roman's Shallot Pasta ~Original music by Colin Bass . ⭐ DITCH THE RECIPES A FREE 5part mini course with my top tips to get started as an intuitive cook! theintuitivecook.co.uk/free ⭐ YOUR WEEKLY DOSE OF KITCHEN CONFIDENCE A newsletter that helps you unleash your cooking instincts. theintuitivecook.co.uk/newsletter ⭐ MEET OTHER CURIOUS HOME COOKS IN OUR COMMUNITY
