Dean Edwards
After coming runner up on BBC’s MasterChef back in 2006 I decided to give up my career as a digger driver to work withing the world of food. It feels like a whirlwind of experiences ever since, from TV appearances, best-selling cookbooks and building a social media following of over 1.3 million, I truly feel like I’m living the dream in getting to create recipes and food content on a daily basis. My ethos is simple, family food and recipes that are accessible to everyone no matter the skill level in the kitchen. To get to work alongside such an iconic brand like OXO as their Chef in Residence, is a real highlight in my journey. I’m all about making life easier when it comes to putting great tasting food on the dinner table and OXO’s range of kitchen gadgets and equipment makes feeding the family a breeze
