In a brand new series on 大象传媒 Radio Wales, well-known
broadcaster Sara Edwards travels the length and breadth
of the country hot on the trail of a Welsh food revolution.
听
The new series, Food
Matters, sees Sara covering a whole host of topics to
do with food - from rediscovering some
age-old Welsh cooking traditions, exploring low budget
healthy eating and finding out some very useful food-related tips.
听
Sara's first stop is The Cooking Bus in St Mellons,
Cardiff, where she drops in on a class of pupils from Oakfield primary
school.
听
"The children not only learn how to cook, they learn
how to think of food in a healthy way," says Sara, who is a strong believer
in good food.
听
Before going to university she gained a professional
cooking diploma at La Petite Cuisine in London. "If I hadn't have followed
a career in the broadcasting I would have become a chef - I love feeding
people."
听
The series will follow a different theme every week
and promises to appeal to everyone.
听
"One week I will focus on cooking for the under fives,
the next might be healthy eating on a pension, and the next might focus
on ethnic food."
听
Sara seems delighted to be involved in a production
that is so close to her own heart.
听
"My family and I grow our own food in our garden in
West Wales - this year I even have enough basil to make my own pesto."
听
Each programme will even feature poetry about food,
written by a Welsh poet. Sara believes that this will add the perfect
touch to the series: "If music is the food of love, poetry is the love
for food!"
听
Food Matters begins on Tuesday 26 July at 6.00pm on
大象传媒 Radio Wales.
