Cook Samin Nosrat (‘Salt Fat Acid Heat’) Returns with ‘Good Things’
Description
Eight years ago, cook and writer Samin Nosrat created a kitchen staple with Salt Fat Acid Heat: a New York Times bestseller that later became a hit Netflix series. Nosrat returns with Good Things, a collection of personal recipes straight from her dining table.
We discuss the influences that shaped the book (8:30 ), the ephemerality (and pleasure) of produce (9:30 ), her complicated San Diego childhood growing up with Iranian parents (17:30 ), the high expectations placed before her (22:40 ), and how she eventually found her way to Chez Panisse in Berkeley (32:00 ).
On the back-half, Samin talks about her salad days working in restaurants (46:00 ), grand openings and closings (42:30 ), the origins of Salt Fat Acid Heat (47:00 ), what The Bear gets right about cooking (1:00:25 ), and how she thinks about time (1:03:00 ) and ritual (1:07:40 ).
