Chiara sees food differently. She is a disruptor who isn't afraid of taking risks! Chiara draws on her heritage and love of using all of the ingredient - root to tip, nose to tail. After university she went into private cheffing. Chiara then landed her dream job at the River Cottage, where she not only fell in love but ascended to Head Chef at the age of 25. This ascension has not been without its challenges. Chiara shares both her hunger inducing recipes and her frank account of times of feeling isolated and how she's coped with that - or cooked her gremlins!
We bonded during our time on Masterchef the Professionals UK 2024. We share an obsession with cooking and desire to get more women cheffing. You can follow Chiara @chiara__tomasoni
