BaxterStorey has teamed up with Thuy Diem Pham to help the company’s chefs broaden their knowledge of Asian cooking. The move reinforces the caterer’s Nourish to Flourish movement, where it aims to encourage an eating for your wellbeing culture that heals both people and the planet.
As a chef partner, the author and former head chef and restaurateur of the Little Viet Kitchen in London’s Islington will run Vietnamese cooking masterclasses for BaxterStorey chefs across the UK. They will learn how to prepare authentic dishes and understand the rationale behind specific ingredients and their different flavour profiles.
Pham said: “I aim to share Vietnamese cooking techniques that are not taught at culinary school, imparting tips and old-school tricks in the hope it will inspire chefs to step up their dishes, but most importantly give them the confidence to approach this cuisine without recipes or measuring tools so they can intuitively balance flavours. I hope to inspire chefs to explore fusion cuisine with integrity, leveraging their newfound skills.”
Andy Aston, head of wellbeing and nutrition for BaxterStorey, added: “We’re very excited to have Thuy on board and have been big fans of her unique approach to Vietnamese cooking for some time. Our business is built on giving people the skills and confidence to truly express their individuality through the power of food, to give our customers a memorable experience. What better person than Thuy to help fuel this!”
