Chef Sofia Gallo

Sofia's interest in food goes back to learning how to make fresh pasta on her nonna's knee. Originally from the Unesco National Park of Cilento, in Southern Italy, she now enjoys living in Buckinghamshire with her family.
She's been living her passion for passing on Italian traditions, teaching Milton Keynes Cookery School, and prides herself on working with multiple online platforms like Foodim, Five Dinners, Riso Gallo UK to do the same. She's the UK Ambassador for Cookpad.uk, and has added Cole&Mason and Zyliss to her portfolio.
Her love of food saw her taking part in MasterChef UK 2021, wowing the judges with dishes that were "styled with class", winning the famous apron with her signature dish and making it to the Quarterfinals.

Vegan Scallops and Pea Purée with a Vegan Bacon Crumb

This delicious way of using king oyster mushrooms will surprise you. The texture is very similar to scallops and pairing it with the sweet pea puree and bacon crumbs, is the perfect combination.

Celeriac is an underrated vegetable. Its celery aniseed flavour is perfect for the pungent salsa verde. Add some crunch with pinenuts and finish with sauteed mushrooms.
