This week on The Food Court  we get curious with Kitchen Curious and welcome the incredible Vivian Howard!  From Southern food traditions to the science of what we cook (and yes… even pickles
), Vivian brings the heart, humor, and wisdom.

 In honor of the new series, Create TV will preview the premiere on Friday, October 3 at 9pm EST to kick off a marathon of Somewhere South and A Chef’s Life. Kitchen Curious streams on the PBS app beginning Monday, October 6 (check local listings).

Vivian’s all-new series dives into everyday kitchen questions with curiosity, humor, and heart: What’s the right way to pickle and preserve? Can root vegetables be the ultimate comfort food? Why is cast iron so essential—and how do you care for it?

 With stops from North Carolina to Paris, Kitchen Curious blends travel, science, and food stories in a way only Vivian can deliver. Why tune in? Because Kitchen Curious is about more than food—it’s about stories, science, and soul. Don’t miss it: Kitchen Curious debuts October 6, 2025 on PBS.
