senior features writer for the Fairfax Good
Food and Epicure lift-outs, and
is the writer and creator of its popular 'Brain Food' column. He has co-written
four previous books on Spanish food with Frank Camorra, and worked in Mexico
researching and photographing a book on Mexican food culture. Richard lives in
Melbourne with his partner, fashion designer Tiffany Treloar, daughters Ginger
and Sunday, and a rambling vegetable garden.
We journey with Frank Camorra
as he searches for the traditional recipes of Andalusia in the south of Spain –
a land of ancient cities, whitewashed villages, and plains planted with olive
groves and vineyards. The largest and
southernmost of Spain's regions, this is a place where cultures and cuisines
have always collided and mingled.
Frank meets the food and
wine producers, farmers, fishermen, chefs and cooks who share the recipes they
have cooked in their kitchens for generations.
Along the way, he takes in riotous spring festivals, lively markets and
peaceful sherry bodegas, and reveals his favourite places to eat, drink and
stay. From an olive picker's breakfast
to cuttlefish in saffron sauce and the smoky lamb skewers called pinchitos
morunos, MoVida Solera is a celebration of Andalusian food and
culture.
