From a Basque childhood spent in the cinnamon scented kitchen of the family bakery to the life she built in Seattle with the husband she followed there, not knowing what she would end up doing. Aran invites you to pull a chair up to the well curated table she shares through her gorgeous books, blog posts and instagram feed. Her heart is on her sleeve at all times and that sleeve is probably made of some gorgeous linen cloth in a colour so subtle it’s hard to describe. She is my gluten free soul sister and I am so happy to kick off my podcast season with this conversation about a few childhood food memories and the Arroz con Leche that her amona Miren made with milk from cows up the road.
