What an absolute honour it was for the team from Melbourne Market to choose me to appear on Sunrise Weather with Sam Mac!
It was a very early wakeup call on 3.30am to then be in the Market by 5am. Strangely this is rather late compared to the majority of workers in the Market who start at midnight!
The wonderful team at A Better Choice! had set up a makeshift kitchen in The Buyers Walk section of the Market. It included a tomato press (or otherwise known as a mincer) because the Sunrise producers had requested we make passata which is an uncooked tomato purée that has been strained of seeds and skins.
This is typically done across a whole day and many family members get involved, but for TV purposes we did a quick step by step showcasing delicious ripe Aussie grown tomatoes. What the audience didn’t see was the tomato press not working just minutes before we went live!
Watching how a TV crew navigate being remote and mobile was awesome to see. Sam Mac was genuinely interested in learning about “sauce tomatoes” and he loved Louise’s Kitchen!
Representing Arnold’s and Louise’s Kitchen on national TV was a great experience. One that I hope to replicate again!
