Ep 5. How to raise unfussy kids + what it's like growing up as Margaret Fulton's daughter | Suzanne Gibbs, aka Kate Gibbs' mother

Welcome to episode 5 of Dish with Kate Gibbs, a cooking podcast. In this episode Kate and her mum Suzanne Gibbs ponder whether, and why, mum's food really does taste better, and how to raise unfussy kids. Fresh from entertaining for friends post rigorous isolation in Sydney, Suzanne tells us about a perfect fish soup, tempura-style vegetables, and what inspires her cooking.

A London Cordon Bleu-trained cook, Suzanne gets into the minutia of how she cooks at home. Making no-knead bread, how to use up a two kilogram portion of ricotta, how she's been inspired by travel as well as her mum (and Kate's grandmother Margaret Fulton), it's all covered in this candid episode, recording in Margaret Fulton's sitting room. Suzanne talks about the joy of entertaining and the importance of praising the cook. Join us as we delve deep into our favourite subject: food and cooking.

Suzanne Gibbs, aka Kate Gibbs' mother, is a London Cordon Bleu-trained cook, author of twenty-something cookbooks including The Thrifty Kitchen (co-authored with Kate Gibbs, Penguin Books (Lantern)), and daughter of Margaret Fulton.
