0:00.0	This season of Desert Island dishes is sponsored by Molden Salt, the finest natural sea salt flakes handcrafted from the British coastline.
0:08.3	They are, quite frankly, the masters of salt, putting craft care and passion into everything they do.
0:14.6	You only have to read one of my recipes to know that I use Mold and Salt every single day for all of my cooking. To say I am a
0:22.9	fan is an understatement. So to be working with them this season is a dream come true. I'm often
0:29.0	asked about the secret to getting better at cooking and my answer is honestly always the same. It
0:34.4	comes down to seasoning and not just as an afterthought. You have to season at every stage
0:40.2	and that's why I love mould and salt. It's light and delicate due to the soft and crunchy

1:29.3	having a good week. I just want to say quickly, thank you so much for all of the support and
1:34.8	reviews and messages from this season of Desert Island dishes. It feels really good to be back
1:40.4	in the swing of things and I'm just so happy everyone's enjoying it so much. I think
1:45.8	one of the things that surprised me when I started Desert Island dishes was it was so obviously
1:51.7	meant to be a podcast about food but very quickly it became apparent that this is also a podcast
1:57.8	about people and it's the food course, but it's also the stories
2:02.6	behind the food.
