My Take
Remi Hirano is the only cook I know whose television appearances feel like a small, cheerful explosion. Ingredients fly, the board is a mess, almost nothing is measured, and somehow you come away in a better mood than you started. She is not there to teach technique. She is there to insist that food does not have to be perfect to be worth eating. Born in Tokyo in 1947, a chanson singer before she was a kitchen personality, daughter of the writer Imao Hirano, and the centre of a family full of musicians and cooks. Approaching eighty and still entirely herself, which is a better lesson than any recipe she has ever demonstrated.
