Hosted by
We cook up the past using abandoned recipes of long ago, get inspiration for an Asian-themed Thanksgiving and bake with a Zen state of mind. We don’t cook meat, but we do find succulent pork sandwiches. Plus, we deconstruct the “food snob” and go on a culinary journey from Beijing to San Francisco with the birth mother of authentic Chinese cuisine.

The Brass Sisters cook up the past using abandoned recipes of long ago, while Saveur editor James Oseland shares Asian-inspired Thanksgiving ideas and Zen priest and chef Edward Espe Brown bakes with a Zen state of mind. Former line cooks Alex Brown and Evan George don’t cook meat, however, writer Laurel Fantauzzo goes on a quest to find succulent pork sandwiches. Plus, authors David Kamp and Marion Rosenfeld deconstruct "the food snob" and birth mother of authentic Chinese cuisine Cecilia Chiang remembers her culinary journey by way of The Mandarin. And as always, Laura Avery serves up a fresh Market Report.
