Show Notes
Join host Angela Clutton in conversation with much-adored food writer, Claudia Roden CBE, credited with revolutionising Western attitudes to Middle Eastern and Mediterranean food.
Since leaving the Cairo of her childhood and arriving in London to study at St Martin's School of Art, she has blazed a trail for Middle Eastern and Mediterranean food in the UK. Her influence is evident in every bottle of pomegranate molasses or dash of harissa we use in our modern kitchens. Still working in her mid-80s, Claudia shares with us the stories behind her life and career, and why – when her children all left home – she set out to travel the Mediterranean alone and how that journey became her latest book, Med.
