Ruby Tandoh Just Wants You to Eat What You Love.
SHEFFIELD, England Come January, everyones an expert on what you should, and should not, be eating, and in what quantities you should, and should not, be eating it.
Not Ruby Tandoh, who is standing in her kitchen in South Yorkshire, sizzling plantains in an inch of oil until theyre a deep brown all over and tender inside.
Ms. Tandoh, a 24-year-old food writer with a cult following in Britain, doesnt endorse a set of rules by which you should shop, cook and eat. Instead, she champions the miscellaneous delights, the quiet quotidian pleasures, of cooking without rules.
I can hear the voices of aunties in my head, she said, sliding across the linoleum to flip the sputtering plantains. Theyre telling me not to overcrowd the pan. . .
Ms. Tandohs spaghetti Bolognese, laced with melted anchovies and bacon, is inspired by a character from the French film Blue Is the Warmest Color who slurps spaghetti throughout the film, uninhibited. (Gotta see that movie!)'>>>
