Hands down the question we receive the most is:

How do you have enough time to cook this way?

Children, work, families, friends, community commitments, earning money, doing life's admin. It all adds up, and before we realise the time we need and want in the kitchen has just disappeared.

If you have ever thought, I just don't have enough time to do this, the next 90 minutes will help you.

Even though we'd love to, we cannot promise to double your kitchen time. What we will do is share practical, real-life strategies that we both use to prioritise the time we spend on food and pass on the many ways we, over our shared 30 years of cooking ancestrally, have learnt in order to efficiently and effectively get what we need to and want to get done in our beloved kitchens.
