A self-described High Chef fanatic, Grammy-winning pop singer Pink attended wine and cooking seminars this previous weekend on the Meals & Wine Traditional in Aspen, Colo. We caught up together with her earlier than she hit the stage as a participant in a cook-off, the place she partnered with Andrew Zimmern of Weird Meals fame (it was a tie, by the best way) and zested a blood orange like a professional. The star crammed us in on her kitchen secrets and techniques, from what she grooves to whereas prepping a meal to how being a mother modified her method to cooking.
On what it is prefer to prepare dinner at residence together with her household.
I prepare dinner on daily basis. I’ve a 4-year-old, Willow. She grew up on tour with me and we had a chef, so in consequence she’s an excellent eater. Our rule is that she has to attempt every little thing as soon as. Then if she doesn’t prefer it, she doesn’t need to eat it once more. Salmon and greens of any sort are what I prefer to take advantage of, and that’s additionally Willow’s favourite.
On changing into a “veggie geek.”
I’ve all the time cooked, however now that I’m a mom I prepare dinner otherwise. Earlier than having a baby, I favored greens however I didn’t guarantee that I had them with each meal. Now I’m a full-on veggie geek. I’ve an natural backyard and every little thing is homegrown. Natural meals and being wholesome is a ardour. My favourite salad to make is grilled halloumi cheese with asparagus, truffle oil, and lemon juice. It’s so easy and scrumptious—and 4-year-olds will eat it!
On her kitchen soundtrack.
I hearken to [French chanteuse] Édith Piaf after I prepare dinner; it’s this bizarre factor that I do. I identical to to fake that I’m French and thin and bitchy and classy and rad and that I can prepare dinner something. There’s a temper that settles over the home that’s type of romantic once we are within the kitchen.
