Autorenporträt
Gerald Stribling travelled far and wide in his professional working life, appreciating good food prepared in various ways. After retiring, he decided to look a little more closely at cabbages and the cruciferous vegetables. As he dug into the subject, he realised the field was very large and would keep him out of trouble for some time. Usanna Stribling has always had a love affair with food. She feels she was lucky enough to raise her family on a smallholding, growing their own vegetables. Life has afforded her opportunities to travel and enrich her mind and palate along the way, a love which she continues to nourish by living in France. From offering her humble help as a five-year-old on her grandfather's vegetable plot and now helping her father compiling this book, they've continued on their culinary adventures together.
