Author Information

NATASHA MACALLER spent 30 years as a professional ballerina performing with New York's prestigious Joffrey Ballet and Boston Ballet, completing her exhilarating career in the Broadway and Los Angeles productions of The Phantom of The Opera. Turning her artistic spirit to a second creative career in the kitchen and garden, Natasha channels the same passion, diligence and precision that made her a successful dancer into the art of cooking. She divides her time between Los Angeles, London and New Zealand, where she teaches cookery courses, writes and is often found in the garden between the rhubarb and the tomatoes. She's also a highly sought-after restaurant consultant. The Apothecary Chef, her third cookbook, is a homage to her curiosity of growing a Noah's ark of fruit, vegetables and herbs in her New Zealand garden and using these and other beneficial grown, foraged or purchased ingredients to blend and create healthful, flavourful and inspired recipes. www.dancingchef.net / Instagram: @dancingchefnatasha @theapothecarychefbook
