In the latest episode of Life in Food with Laura Price, I talk about Food and Nurture with Lara Gilmore, co-owner of Osteria Francescana and Casa Maria Luigia in Modena, Italy, and co-founder of the Food for Soul and Tortellante social projects. Together with chef Massimo Bottura, Lara is also mother of two children – her daughter, Alexa, and son Charlie, who was born with a genetic syndrome that causes developmental difficulties. We talk about the power of food to nurture and heal communities and how it’s possible to transform lives with something as simple as pasta.

In the latest episode of Life in Food with Laura Price, I talk about Food and Feminism with Sally Abé, chef-consultant of British fine dining restaurant The Pem in West London. Sally talks about her newly published memoir, A Woman’s Place is in the Kitchen, where she recounts her experiences as a young woman working her way up through some of the UK’s top Michelin-starred kitchens. We also discuss whether food can be gendered, what it’s like to work in a male-dominated industry and whether a woman’s place is, indeed, in the kitchen.
