Many people got to know Matty Matheson via The Bear, but he was first and foremost a chef with a cult following. Here he redefines the recipes for the simple things many of us eat daily, elevated as only he can. If you’re making meatballs for dinner, make a few extra and serve them in a rich tomato broth. Who says you can’t put peaches and goat’s cheese in a sandwich? French toast sarnies – of course you can!
