  • Good but some glaring errors are in here

    Love food. Love history. This is a great podcast, but occasionally there is the odd blip that just is not true. Like, ‘all British people immediately know you’re talking about curry when you say Ruby’. I’m 36 and have not once heard or used that term in my native Britain. I had to Google it and, as suspected, it is cockney slang. Little things like that really make you question everything else you hear on the podcast.

  • No doubt a brilliant chef but not a podcaster

    The topics might be interesting in someone else’s hands but I cannot bear to listen to his delivery. He is entirely UNinteresting to listen to. .. and I listen to Dan Pashman at times when I’ve run out of my favorites

  • Onion knives!

    A great knife maker named Ken Onion made a family of smaller folding knives named the Leek, the Scallion, and the Chive. I own all three.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Interview with Legendary Chef, Emeril Lagasse
Q: How did your early life influence your cooking philosophy?
My Portuguese-Italian-Louisiana heritage, plus the support from family, taught me to value kitchen culture, hospitality, and learning from every region I explored, which became the core of how I cook and teach.
Interview with Author, Publisher & Founder of Award-Winning Milk Street, Christopher Kimball
Q: What have you learned from touring and cooking with home cooks around the world?
The most important lesson is that the best food is often simple and derived from everyday cooking. The 'rule of three' helps decode how flavors and textures are combined in different cultures, and the hospitality and willingness to share knowledge across borders are what truly define great cooking.
Interview with Author, Publisher & Founder of Award-Winning Milk Street, Christopher Kimball
Q: How do you approach recipe testing, and how many iterations do you typically go through?
In Milk Street we focus on clear objectives for each recipe. Most recipes go through six to ten tests, with some as many as twenty in rare cases where the approach needs refinement. The aim is to be efficient and avoid unnecessary repetition while ensuring the result is reliable and well-structured.
Interview with Author, Publisher & Founder of Award-Winning Milk Street, Christopher Kimball
Q: How did you transition from Cook's Illustrated to Milk Street and what sparked the global shift?
I wanted to move from traditional American cooking magazines to a format that highlights real home cooking around the world. It involved starting Milk Street in 2016 after feeling the magazine world needed a broader, more global approach and then building a team to travel, test recipes, and connect with home cooks.
Interview with Food Network Star, Justin Warner
Q: Tell us about Food Network Star.
Justin explains how winning 24-Hour Restaurant Battle led to his audition and fast tracking into Food Network Star, detailing the improvisation, mentorship from Alton Brown, and the pressure to perform on live, unscripted television.
