About

Two cooks. One pantry.

We met in a nursery kitchen in the Chilterns. Julie grew up in her mother’s restaurant kitchens in Korea. Patrick was a journalist before he wasn’t. We started making things together — chilli jam, kimchi, the things that take time — and people kept asking where they could buy them. So we made this.

Patrick and Julie together

What we believe

  • Time is an ingredient.Fermentation, maturation, patience. The slow way is the only way we know how to cook.
  • Two traditions, equal weight.Julie’s Korean home cooking and Patrick’s English slow-craft sit side by side. Neither bends to the other.
  • Made by hand, in small batches.Sometimes we run out.

A note on what’s in the jars

Patrick is vegetarian. Julie’s kimchi is her mother’s recipe, fish sauce and all. We didn’t change either. Every label says exactly what’s inside.
