Virginia Martín - Sweet&Sour

2018-06-14 I used to be a lawyer, practicing with my husband in Bilbao (Basque Country). I now combine my work as a barrister with the profession of photographer and stylist, also in partnership with my husband Jose, who makes it possible for me to combine two very different professions.
It all started about six years ago, when I started to share my gastronomic experiments on the social networks, and they turned out to be quite popular. It was only logical for me to start a blog.

In “Sweet & Sour” I express all my love of cooking and good food as well as my other great love, photography. I inherited these two passions from my family, for we have always had excellent cooks in the family (my mother and grandmothers) and celebrated important events around the table. To this I may add a passion for art and painting, in which I was initiated when still small by my uncle Agustín, an outstanding painter. I have now replaced my paintbrushes with the lens of my camera.

If I add to all this the fact that I enjoy receiving guests in my home with a well-designed table setting, I believe I have provided you with all the ingredients you need to guess what you will find on “Sweet & Sour”.

There is a long list of recipes, ranging from �great classics to baking, with excellent breads and cakes, accompanied by clear explanations and quick, easy recipes, for people approaching cooking for the first time or wanting to eat well without complicating their lives too much, as well as recipes for special diets such as gluten-free, lactose-free and just plain healthy cooking.
I look forward to seeing you on my blog, “Sweet & Sour”!
