Neil Rankin
Neil Rankin is a chef, author and co-founder of symplicity.®. A science graduate who retrained as a chef at 29, Neil went on to cook at Michelin level and open a number of influential London restaurants, including Pitt Cue Co, John Salt, Smokehouse and Temper. He is widely recognised as a pioneer of fire-based cooking in the UK, a regular contributor to food media, and a familiar face on UK television.
Driven by a long-standing interest in flavour, sustainability and how food is made, Neil has increasingly focused on vegetables as the starting point for great taste. Through symplicity.®, he applies cheffing craft and natural processes such as slow fermentation to create intensely flavourful ingredients made from vegetables, now used by leading restaurants and Michelin-starred chefs across the UK.
