chloe faure - food journalist

I’m Chloe. French-born, UK-based, and passionate about food and wine.

I grew up in the French countryside surrounded by farmers and winemakers, which started my love for good ingredients and the people who make them.
In the UK, I’ve worked across supply chain, range and marketing in food and wine retail for Fortnum & Mason, Fine Food Specialist & Forest Wines, while also writing about sustainable food systems, producers and natural wine in the press.

Where Has All the Mustard Gone? - Modern Farmer

Essential to a traditional vinaigrette and divine when accompanying a piece of ribeye, mustard is one of those condiments often found sitting on French people’s fridge doors. The French consume an average of one kilogram of mustard per person every year. However, in the past few months, the condiment has been missing from many households and supermarket shelves have been left barren. 
On TikTok, the term “home made mustard” commands more than 770 millions views, more than 10 times the views on h...
