\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tWhat are your earliest memories of food?<\/p>\n
When I was a child, I spent the summers with my family, food was a big part of my childhood. My father used to do a lot of grilling, and one of my earliest memories would be smelling the meat hitting the fire and the charcoal smoke, which always made me super excited. My mum made the sides, and one of them was always fresh new potatoes, cooked with butter and garlic.<\/p>\n
How would you describe your relationship with food?<\/p>\n
It\u2019s one of the great pleasures in life, not just what you eat but also sitting down together, sharing a meal with family or friends. Going out for dinner with someone and experiencing that someone put a lot of pride and effort into making something delicious. I love food, trying new things, flavours, and texture combinations. Both to cook and test for myself, but also to be a diner or a tourist when you go abroad and see new cultures.<\/p>\n
What was the first meal you learned to cook?<\/p>\n
I would say it is the Swedish dish Pytt-i-panna; where you dice potatoes, onions and meat into cubes and pan fry them all together. We used to make a version of it at home with leftover meat and leftover boiled potatoes, then you eat it with a pan-fried egg and pickled beets.<\/p>\n
How did working with food become your career?<\/p>\n
We had some internships in school before you choose to go to college in Sweden, I was in a kitchen in my home village. The atmosphere in the kitchen and that you did different tasks appealed to me. But it wasn\u2019t a given to become a cook. I started going in a different direction, but eventually got into culinary school at college and when I was there I felt it was right.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"What are your earliest memories of food?
