Meet Richard of Familyhomecook – a true Stalwart to the core.
What makes you a Stalwart? I like to think that I’m very durable and, like a Stalwart leather apron, can handle the heat of the kitchen. Also, like the leather, and a fine wine, I can only get better with time!
How did it all start? My love for food and cooking started when my wife and I moved in together in 2002 and I happened to discover Jamie Oliver’s The Naked Chef on TV. At the time there was no one like him and I fell in love with cooking and food. I have Jamie Oliver to thank for lighting my fire!
What’s next? My goal is to make a living from food full time. I currently write restaurant reviews and do as much foodie stuff as possible, but to be able to do all of this as a career would be the dream
