Sarah Rankin is former MasterChef Finalist, food writer, cookbook author and lover of Scottish flavours and produce.
Sarah celebrates Scotland’s Larder, local suppliers and artisan producers in her food writing, broadcasting, chef demonstrations, private dining, supper club, pop up collaborations, and food festival appearances.
You can hear her regular contributions on BBC Radio Scotland’s Morning Show, and as a panellist on BBC Radio 4’s iconic food show, The Kitchen Cabinet.
Her monthly Supper Clubs and Cookery Classes are sell-out events which focus on wonderful, local ingredients, cooked simply, and enjoyed in good company.
A native Highlander, Sarah is the host at the Golden Spurtle World Porridge Championships, held every October in the village of Carrbridge in the Cairngorms National Park, which attracts competitors from across the globe doing incredible things with our national grain.
She is delighted host chef demonstrations at venues across the UK, and Foodies Festivals are always a big part of her calendar. She says; ‘Foodies Festivals have become go-to events for the public and chefs alike. A celebration of food, drink, and music, they give foodies and chefs a chance to meet each other and share what they love. And have a fantastic day out!’
Sarah’s first cookbook, ‘Kith – seasonal, Scottish food for family and friends’ is out now and her second, ‘Feast – a collection of menus that bring joy,’ will be available in October 2025.
