Great British Kitchen

Rachel Khoo

Best selling food writer, cook and television presenter Rachel Khoo, is on a search for moments of joy and indulgence both in and out of the kitchen.

Having studied art and design at central saint martins, it was her attendance of a three-month patisserie course at le cordon bleu in paris in 2006 which persuaded Khoo to start a career in the kitchen. These classical origins are partly responsible for rachel’s characteristic love for indulgent, rich food which has the power to bring ultimate satisfaction.

Rachel has an essential curiosity about food cultures around the world. Being of mixed heritage herself and having lived abroad in various countries since childhood, Rachel brings an awareness of the international to her cooking and eating. For now, the ‘cosmopolitan cook’ is based in Sweden, where she lives with her husband and three young children, but frequently works in the UK and Australia.

Rachel Khoo will be joining us on Thursday 30th May.
