When the Canadian chef Matty Matheson was growing up, first in Nova Scotia and later in Ontario, he liked going to punk shows, he didn't do particularly well in school, and he didn't think he was athletic or cool like his brothers.

In this episode we step away from pizza for a moment and focus on culinary teaching for the everyday person. I first met Chef Alyssa Gorelick about 15 years ago when she was at the helm of a very innovative vegetarian restaurant called Fern. She was young and single and super talented. Fast forward to today and she is now Alyssa Wilen, a mother, happily married to her husband Andrew, and for a number of years they have been operating a cooking school here in Charlotte (where we all live) called Alyssa's Kitchen. Along the way I found out that Alyssa was not a vegetarian when she was the chef at Fern, but adapted her skills to that cuisine because, well, she could.It's that kind of artisanal spirit that propelled her and Andrew to tackle the daunting task of opening a cooking school for home cooks, then navigating through the pandemic to survive, and ultimately growing an important and beloved local business. Resilience and entrepreneurship are the key words here, so tune in as we hear all about the journey and creative process of Alyssa and Andrew Wilen, here on Pizza Quest.Click here for the video versions of Pizza Quest.

In his early life, Joel Josewski's outgoing personality got him into nothing but trouble. Jumping in with both feet can be a good thing if you're pointed in the right direction. However, in his youth, often, he was not. Though he graduated high school at an alternative high school, his addictions led him down a road of lies, coverups, and crime. On his way to prison for a very long time, his attorney convinced him to apply to enroll in The Other Side Academy. 2 years was a long time but it was shorter than the prison term ahead of him. Like most the things he has done in his life, there he found himself jumping in with both feet. That was 9 years ago. Now, still at TOSA, he serves as a faculty member mentoring and helping others whose shoes he has walked in, find their way back to themselves. His is an incredible story of redemption and service.

Like most comedians, Glazer found a need for laughter in his life while growing up in a dark atmosphere. He is diagnosed Manic Bi-Polar and grew up with Schizophrenia among other mental illnesses in his household and immediate family. At a young age, he found ways to make his mother laugh in order to keep their family home from being too intense and furthering his own mental health issues. He is open about being on medication for his diagnosis and hope that doing so will help others (especially men) feel that they can normalize the conversation and get help. From earning a Gold Medal with Team USA as a roller hockey goalie, performing alongside Dave Chapelle (who saw him performing at his monthly sold-out show Glazed at the Hollywood Improv and decided to jump up on stage – they ended up singing Radiohead's ‘Creep' together), to cooking alongside Gordon Ramsay (after being featured on Worst Cooks in America and then going to Culinary School), Glazer has a multitude of talents, wild stories and anecdotes to share.

In episode 516, Jo Keohane teaches us how to style food to make it look as delicious as possible in order to drive more traffic to our blogs. Since graduating from Culinary School in NYC in 2010 Jo Keohane freelanced as a Recipe Developer and Food Stylist in test kitchens of many America's best known publications, like Bon Appetit Magazine, Epicurious and Saveur. She has also worked with a variety of household brands like William Sonoma, Weightwatchers, Staub Cookware, Danone, Kraft and more. She started off life as a BBC journalist and then worked in PR in London. But a love of cooking and a desire to find a fulfilling career which would allow her to spend more time with her 3 kids took her back to school to study cooking. After moving to the USA in she was lucky enough to attend the Institute of Culinary Education in New York City. Now she runs her own food blog - The Family Food Kitchen - helping other busy families to eat well even when time is short! her blog focusses on easy, delicious and do-able recipes - and contains lots of one pot, sheet pan and easy meal ideas. In this episode, you'll learn about what to consider before you start shooting your recipe, including how to layer and pick ingredients, backdrops, props and garnishes. - Food Styling is a Problem Solving Exercise: During recipe development, plan ahead to make sure your ingredients will help you make your dish look appealing. - Don't Hold Back on Good-Quality Ingredients: Better quality ingredients will have more vibrancy and make your photos pop more. - Create Depth and Movement in Food Photography: Use layering to create depth in your photos and take photos of movement (e.g. pouring a sauce). - Balance Perfection and Authenticity: While it's important to make your photos look appealing and create intrigue avoid overly perfect photos - crumbs and spills in small quantities add character. - Proper Ingredient Storage: Store ingredients to maintain freshness and quality. For example improper storage of herbs can lead to wilting and might detract from your photos. - Adjust Cooking Times for Food Photography: There's a difference between cooking to eat food and cooking for photography. Adjust cooking times to ensure that the food looks its best on camera. - Use Props and Tools for Food Styling: Jo discusses the importance of having a set tray with essential tools and props for food styling, such as sharp knives, tweezers, Q-tips, paper towels, toothpicks, spritz bottles, squeeze bottles, spatulas, and brushes to aid in food styling. - Layering Garnishes to Enhance the Dish: Use different garnishing techniques to elevate the appearance of dishes for photography. By layering garnishes strategically, you can add depth and visual interest to the dish. Connect with Jo Keohane Website | Instagram

Enchanté! I'm Anne “Stuart” Folkes, sometimes known as ASF. Based sometimes in Paris, most of the time in Provence, and every now and again in the USA and the United Kingdom. I am an instructor, writer, chef, traveler, and avid learner. Lover of all things artistic and historic, I left my career in international business to live the life I'd always imagined in France. In America, they call it the “Great Resignation,” but I believe in the rest of the world it's simply called living. After graduating with my Diplôme de Cuisine and a Diplôme de Gastronomy, Nutrition, and Food Trends at the renowned institution Le Cordon Bleu in Paris, recently awarded the #1 Culinary School in the world, I began my own business here in France. Now my days are filled with work as a professional private chef, caterer, and cooking instructor.Prior to this, I worked in Global Grocery Procurement, traveling the world to source the best products and ingredients, and gaining an understanding of the food chain, international culinary logistics, and its impact on societies and environment along the way. As a Texan expat who's lived in Italy, the United Kingdom, and France, I believe that learning to cook as as innate as it is joyful. You can find me teaching on Zoom, Google Meets, FaceTime, and at the famous La Peetch in Provence! If you are interested in learning more, please contact me.

This week on I speak with chef Rollie Wesen. He's the executive Director of the Jacques Pépin foundation, as well as an assistant professor at Johnson & Wales University in Providence, Rhode Island. Rollie is married to Claudine Pepin, Jaques daughter. In talking with Jacques, they thought it would be a great idea to start a foundation while he was still alive, and create something that would have a lasting, positive affect on the world.Jacques decided that he wanted the foundation to focus on one singular mission. To support community kitchens that offer free life skills and culinary training to adults with high barriers to employment. Those barriers could be previous incarceration, homelessness, substance abuse issues, low skill or lack of work history. On this episode, we talk about how the foundation came to be, and have a more in-depth conversation about their mission, and what the future holds for the foundation. Rollie also shares some fun stories like the photographing of Jaques's cookbooks. And being a professor at Johnson & Wales University, we spoke about the state of culinary education today.Rollie Wesen and The Jacques Pépin FoundationThe Jacques Pépin Foundation WebsiteThe Jacques Pépin Foundation's Instagram and FacebookRollie's InstagramJacques's cookbook New Complete TechniquesCHEFS WITHOUT RESTAURANTSIf you enjoy the show and would like to support it financially, please check out our Sponsorship page (we get a commission when you use our links).
