Inaccurate labels don’t taste so good anymore, it's time to start rewriting the language of food.
In this episode of Food Rebels, AJ Sharp chats with Egyptian food writer and culinary consultant Soha Darwish, whose cooking blends the rich influences of her Egyptian and Syrian heritage. From growing up in cosmopolitan Alexandria to discovering her culinary voice in London and Abu Dhabi, Soha shares how she swapped a career in mechanical engineering for a life in food.
She talks about simplifying traditional recipes, hosting with heart, and why she’s challenging the label “Middle Eastern cuisine.” Expect stories of family kitchens, cultural identity, and the art of real, home-style cooking, plus a few laughs about the chaos of dinner parties and finding her self confidence.
