Spend a few minutes with Dee Rettali, Founder of Fortitude Bakehouse and you quickly sense that baking, for her, is rooted in instinct, memory and place. Raised in rural North Cork, surrounded by farmland and seasonal produce, she grew up learning to bake from her mother and grandmother - soda breads, jams and apple pies made simply and well.
After moving to London in the late 80s, Dee found her calling in professional baking, eventually founding Fortitude Bakehouse, now known for its nostalgic, craft-led bakes. Here, she reflects on Irish food traditions, instinctive baking and the flavours that still define home.

St Patrick’s Day with Dee

Most kitchens don’t suffer from a lack of tools. They suffer from too many. Drawers full of gadgets that promised ease and delivered clutter. Cupboards stacked with things that felt essential once, then quietly fell out of rotation. The idea of kitchen essentials has been diluted by listicles and checklists. But when you strip it back, the essentials are simple: the objects you reach for every day, the ones that make cooking feel smoother, calmer, more intuitive. The ones that earn their place. This is a guide to kitchen essentials that actually get used - not aspirational, not excessive, just thoughtfully chosen pieces that support real life in the kitchen.

Kitchen Essentials That Actually Get Used

Spend five minutes with chef Santiago Lastra, the force behind London’s KOL, where Mexican cooking is filtered through a fiercely personal, produce-led lens.

From spicy, fresh plates designed to make you order another round, to the quiet power of teamwork in the kitchen, Santiago reflects on patience, joy, and why the best meals are colourful, generous, and made to be shared.

Put the kettle on and spend five minutes with Amelia Christie-Miller (@ameliachristiemiller), the founder of Bold Bean Co (@boldbeanco), the brand turning humble beans into cult kitchen staples. Once a self-proclaimed bean sceptic, Amelia’s love affair began with a hangover and a jar of heirloom butter beans in Spain, one spoonful later, she was hooked. What started as a revelation has become a movement: showing the world that beans can be delicious, nutritious, joyful, and planet-friendly.
From building a business rooted in sustainability to collaborating with Ottolenghi and hitting Sunday Times Bestseller status with her new book Full of Beans, Amelia is proving that beans really can change the world - one creamy spoonful at a time. She talks about rewriting the rules of “tinned food”, celebrating indulgence without compromise, and how a simple jar of beans became the foundation for a more flavourful, thoughtful way of eating.

Put the kettle on and spend five minutes with chef Abby Lee (@abby_lee_chef), whose cooking is a love letter to her Malaysian roots and the power of food to heal. After burning out and finding herself back home during lockdown, Abby rediscovered the bold, soulful flavours of her childhood through her aunt’s kitchen and it changed everything. Now, at her London restaurant Mambow, she’s bringing that same heart and heat to the table: smoky gula melaka–laced desserts, punchy curries, and dishes that balance memory with modern flair. Abby talks about finding her voice through food, the joy of reconnecting with her heritage, and why cooking still grounds her like nothing else.

Put the kettle on and spend five minutes with Olivia Cavalli (@olivia_cavalli), the chef, food stylist, and writer whose debut cookbook Stagioni is a heartfelt ode to the rhythm of the seasons, and to her Italian roots. Olivia’s approach to food is steeped in instinct and tradition, inspired by her beloved Nonna who taught her that cooking is less about rules and more about feeling - “a little bit of this, a little bit of that.” Olivia shares how her heritage continues to shape her cooking, from the reverence for ingredients and seasonality to the joy of preserving family recipes. She talks about finding creativity in the ebb and flow of her multifaceted career, the comfort of a simple bowl of pasta, and the enduring legacy of her Nonna’s “Piggy” - a stuffed cabbage dish that holds generations of love in every bite.

What began as necessity grew into joy, guided by well-thumbed recipe books and a curiosity for flavour.
