Here are her Top 5:
RED WINE
My kitchen is full of bottles of red wine. Some full, most of them empty. I like to keep the ones that were important, the ones I shared with friends or relatives because we were celebrating something I like to remember. I paint with ink on the label the name of the people I drank it with and the date. When there's a few bottles full I run to get a few.
LEEKS
I discovered a wonderful leek quiche recipe andsince then I haven't missed a chance to cook it.
ARTICHOKES
If I knew how to make paellas, I would add the rest of ingredients to make the typical dish of my land.
CHEESE
When I open the fridge and there's a good selectionof cheeses, I feel like I'm the richest person on earth.
COFFE
Essential for starting in the morning. I'm the kind of girl who gets her sheets glued to.
