Yoke Mardewi
Resume
Following successful careers in fashion and finance, Yoke Mardewi took the plunge and decided to work at her first love and passion – the making and sharing of food and in particular, sourdough bread-making.
Yoke runs cooking classes with a specialty in sourdough bread-making. She has written the book ‘Wild Sourdough,’ featured on Western Australian TV, radio and in various food and health websites, newspapers and magazines.
Her cooking classes are as much about sharing her warmth and passion for life as they are about the joy of food.
Yoke is a member of the Artisan Bakers Association and Slow Food, and is a keen supporter of organic/biodynamic farming.
Yoke currently lives in Perth with her daughter and two jack russells. She supports and encourages others to have the courage to pursue their passion in life.
