Tamasin Day-Lewis

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Tamasin Day-Lewis (born 1954, London) is a British television chef, daughter of the poet Cecil Day-Lewis and sister of the actor Daniel Day-Lewis. She advocates the use of locally grown organic produce. Tamasin is a respected food writer, television producer and director. As well as writing a weekly food column for The Daily Telegraph, Tamasin's cookbooks have covered a range of comforting, rural recipes, from the preparation of seasonal dishes and picnics to the art of pie-baking and 'proper', slow cooking. Her book West of Ireland Summers was a collection of favourite recipes taken from and inspired by her childhood in County Mayo. The rural theme continues in Tamasin's two series for UKTV Food, in which she cooks at her family home in the country.
