Simon Majumdar is a noted food critic and the host of the podcast Eat My Globe.

In our new bonus “From Home" series, Michael checks in with chefs and food personalities to bring you short audio glimpses of how they’re cooking during lock-down, which pantry items they’re utilizing, and what they’re looking forward to after life returns to normal.

We'll be publishing dispatches from this "pandemic pantry" several times a week. For more from Simon, Check out his two books “Eat My Globe” and “Eating for Britain.”
