It's two legends, one stage on today's show as we dip into the Jubilee archives. Don't miss this wise and warm conversation between Madhur Jaffrey and Padma Lakshmi from the Cherry Bombe Jubilee Conference in Brooklyn in Spring 2019. Madhur, says Padma, “is the greatest living writer on Indian food—ever.” Padma, the former host of “Top Chef,” the star and creator of “Taste the Nation,” and a best-selling author, interviewed Madhur and it was a riveting exchange that touched on a wide range of topics: protesting with Mahatma Gandhi, working with the legendary cookbook editor Judith Jones, facing discrimination as an Indian actress, and cheering on the young women championing both Indian food and representation today, including Priya Krishna and Meera Sodha. Introducing Madhur and Padma are Suzanne and Michelle Rousseau. The sisters and culinary superstars from Jamaica are the authors of the cookbooks “Provisions” and “Caribbean Potluck.”If you're attending Jubilee, don't miss our first-ever Jubilee Pre-Game on Zoom this Wednesday, April 2nd, at 3 p.m. EST—an exclusive session for ticket holders to get all the insider details before the big day.For Jubilee 2025 tickets, click here.

Over more than half a century as an editor at Knopf, Judith Jones became a legend, nurturing future literary icons such as Sylvia Plath, Anne Tyler, and John Updike. But although I was an English major, I first learned of Judith Jones years later, when I realized that Edna Lewis, M.F.K. Fisher, Claudia Roden, Madhur Jaffrey, James Beard, and, most famously, Julia Child, all had the same editor -- her. Judith celebrated the art and pleasures of cooking and culinary diversity, and in the process changed the way Americans think about food. Sara Franklin's new book, The Editor, is a highly anticipated biography of Judith that details her astonishing career, and it is my suggestion for a perfect summer read. Sara is a writer and editor in her own right with bylines including The New York Times, The Washington Post, and The Nation. In this conversation, we delve into the nature of serious cookbooks, the art and craft of recipe writing, and the cultural significance of writing about food. Sara writes and teaches at New York University's Gallatin School for Individualized Study, so this conversation with me was via zoom from her home in Kingston, NY.

How Publishing Legend Judith Jones Shaped Culture in America Sarah B. Franklin Come join us as food historian and author Sara Franklin gives insight into Judith Jones, the visionary behind some of the most important authors of the 20th century, including Julia Child, Anne Frank, John Updike and Sylvia Plath. This iconic editor finally gets her due in Ms. Franklin's newly released book, The Editor. Ms. Franklin recounts that when Judith Jones began working at Doubleday's Paris office in 1949, the then twenty-five-year-old spent most of her time wading through manuscripts in the slush pile and passing on projects—until one day, a manuscript caught her eye. She read the book in one sitting, then begged her boss to consider publishing it. A year later, Anne Frank: The Diary of a Young Girl became a bestseller. It was the start of Jones' culture-defining career in publishing. Jones moved to Knopf publishing, and during her more than fifty years at that company, she published the who's who of food writing, including Edna Lewis, M.F.K. Fisher, Madhur Jaffrey, James Beard, Joan Nathan, and, most famously, Julia Child. Jones helped turn these authors into household names and changed the way Americans think about food, cooking, and culinary diversity. Ms. Franklin became friendly with Ms. Jones, conducted numerous interviews with her and studied her personal papers. And now she wants to share the life of one of our country's most influential tastemakers. Biography: Sara B. Franklin received a 2020–2021 National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) public scholars grant for her research on Judith Jones and teaches courses on food culture, writing, and oral history at NYU's Gallatin School for Individualized Study and via the NYU Prison Education Initiative at Wallkill Correctional Facility. She is the author of Edna Lewis and The Phoenicia Diner Cookbook. She holds a PhD in food studies from NYU and studied documentary radio and nonfiction at both the Duke Center for Documentary Studies and the Salt Institute for Documentary Studies.

Familiar to millions as the woman who brought Indian cookery into UK kitchens through her books and TV series, Madhur Jaffrey's Indian Cookery is celebrating its 40th anniversary with a sumptuous new edition featuring some brand new recipes. We sat down to speak with her from New York about her childhood in India, training as an actress in London, and her influence to this day as the author of the book that many still maintain is the best Indian cookbook available.
When Madhur Jaffrey published "An Invitation to Indian Cooking" in 1973, she had no idea that half a century later, the book would not only still be in print, but also get an anniversary reissue that will welcome future generations in the vast and varied cuisine of her homeland. In the twelfth episode of Tinfoil Swans, Food & Wine's executive features editor Kat Kinsman finally meets her lifelong culinary hero and gets some sage advice from the writer, teacher, and actress about self worth, righteous anger, perfectionism, and what actually matters to you when you turn 90.

Today's episode comes to you straight from Madhur Jaffrey's kitchen. NPR's Michel Martin pays the celebrated chef and actor a visit in her New York home, where she discusses how she first learned to cook while studying acting in London. Jeffrey also reflects on how Indian cooking has changed since she published her first cookbook. An Invitation to Indian Cooking will be re-issued later this year to mark its 50th anniversary.
Food and cooking and its influences on me, come from the necessity of thrift from the Second World War
"Today, there was a rainbow that I forgot to mention to anyone, arcing across most of the sky, beautiful..." Fresh baked bread. Seasonings. The hot oven. A pinch of this... just enough of that... and the ways that changes in our habits and appetites can point to deeper hungers and needs.For more on Madhur Jaffrey:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Madhur_JaffreyNotes and full transcript:https://dev.intensivesinstitute.com/episode/food-that-makes-you-go-hmmm
It's two legends, one stage on today's show as we dip into the Jubilee archives. Don't miss this wise and warm conversation between Madhur Jaffrey and Padma Lakshmi from the Cherry Bombe Jubilee Conference in Brooklyn in Spring 2019. Madhur, says Padma, “is the greatest living writer on Indian food—ever.” Padma, the star of Top Chef and Taste the Nation and a best-selling author, interviewed Madhur and it was a riveting exchange that touched on a wide range of topics: protesting with Mahatma Gandhi, working with the legendary cookbook editor Judith Jones, facing discrimination as an Indian actress, and cheering on the young women championing both Indian food and representation today, including Priya Krishna and Meera Sodha. Introducing Madhur and Padma are Suzanne and Michelle Rousseau. The sisters and culinary superstars from Jamaica are the authors of the cookbooks Provisions and Caribbean Potluck.Jubilee is Cherry Bombe's annual conference and has become the largest gathering of women in the world of food & drink in the U.S. Early Bird Tickets are now available for Jubilee 2023, taking place Saturday, April 15th, at Center415 in Manhattan.

The Siren deserves a sweet treat like Lemon Layer Cake with Summer Berries, a recipe that reminds Jacqueline of picking berries, swimming, and just enjoying the sun.
40 years ago the BBC broadcast a new TV cooking series called "Madhur Jaffrey's Indian Cooking". It was a first, and showed audiences that Indian food did not rely on curry powder, and that dishes were different depending on what region of India they originated. But that's not all, the series and Madhur Jaffrey's subsequent books (she has written more than 30) had another effect; it made her a model for two generations of women with roots in India. Today Sheila Dillon meets some of those prominent and hugely successful female chefs, restaurateurs, food writers and stylists who are currently working in the UK, to find out about their lives, and what they make of Madhur Jaffrey's legacy. Asma Khan rose to fame when she was chosen as the first British chef to star in the Netflix series, Chef's Table. She runs her London restaurant, Darjeeling Express, with an all-female staff. Chetna Makan worked as a fashion designer in India before moving to the UK. She switched careers after making it to the semi-finals of the Great British Bake Off in 2014. She is now the author of 5 cookery books, and has more than 210,000 subscribers on YouTube. Ravinder Bhogal is a chef, food writer and author of two books. She also runs the London restaurant, Jikoni, which she describes as being “proudly inauthentic”. Romy Gill is a chef, broadcaster and food writer, and was one of the first Asian women in the UK to own her own restaurant. Rukmini Iyer is a food stylist and writer and the author of the bestselling "Roasting Tin" series of books. Sejal Sukhadwala is a London food writer. Her first book "The Philosophy of Curry" has just been published. Presented by Sheila Dillon Produced in Bristol by Natalie Donovan
A weekly switch off activity that has somehow become ingrained in family life.
British woman Sarah Ransome says she wanted to be at Ghislaine Maxwell trial when it started: not to testify but to see justice take its course. Like the four women who gave evidence, she says she's also a victim of Epstein's and Maxwell's. She tells us more about her story and Harriet Wistrich, founder of Centre for Women's Justice discusses the wider impact this case could have. Sheila Watt-Cloutier, is a world renowned human rights and climate change activist, who has made it her life's work to protect her Inuit culture and the Arctic regions where Inuit live, in Greenland, Canada and Alaska. She was born in Arctic Canada and launched the first legal petition linking climate change to human rights. We discuss the word 'spinster' and what it really means with Australian author Donna Ward. Her new book She I Dare Not Name: A Spinster's Meditations on Life., explores the meaning and purpose she has fought to find in a life lived entirely accidentally without a partner or children. BBC History is launching a 100 objects collection to mark 100 years of the BBC in 2022. Head of History Robert Seatter gives us a sneak peak into a few objects which represent the history of women at the BBC including a 1930s job advert looking to recruit the first women TV announcers, a cookbook by Madhur Jaffrey and a 1920s scrapbook from Evelyn Dove, the first black female singer to perform on BBC. British women weren't allowed to visit the Antarctic until 1983 but now scores of women are making major contributions to polar science. Morgan Seag who has just submitted her PhD in gendered institutional change in 20th century Antarctic science to the University of Cambridge and Jo Johnson who has visited Antarctica seven times tell us more.
Australian author Donna Ward's new book She I Dare Not Name: A Spinster's Meditations on Life explores the meaning and purpose she has fought to find in a life lived entirely accidentally without a partner or children. Donna speaks to Chloe from Melbourne. Over the next few days we're talking to women about their scars. They all talk about physical and emotional pain they've experienced and having to deal with other people's reactions on a day to day basis. They also explain how they came to terms with the skin they are in. Ena Miller went to meet Jayne in Shropshire and heard her story about surviving a flesh eating bug. Comedian Liz Kingsman, best known as a member of cult sketch group Massive Dad, is making major waves with her solo debut, One-Woman Show, which she is performing at the Soho Theatre from 5 January. She tells Chloe what inspired her. As the BBC prepares to celebrate its 100th anniversary through the lens of 100 objects, we get a sneak peek at a few items in the collection. The BBC's Head of History Robert Seatter explains the significance of a 1930s press cutting of the BBC looking to recruit the first women TV announcers, a cookbook by Madhur Jaffrey and a 1920s scrapbook from Evelyn Dove, the first black female singer to perform on BBC.

In The Immigrant Kitchen: Food, Ethnicity, and Diaspora (Ohio State UP, 2016), Vivian Nun Halloran examines food memoirs by immigrants and their descendants and reveals how their treatment of food deeply embeds concerns about immigrant identity in the United States. Halloran argues that by offering a glimpse into the authors' domestic lives through discussions of homemade food, these memoirs demystify the processes of immigration, assimilation, acculturation, and expatriation--ultimately examining what it means to live as naturalized citizens of the United States. Having grown up hearing about their parents' often fraught experiences of immigration, these authors examine the emotional toll these stories took and how such stories continue to affect their view of themselves as Americans. Halloran covers a wide swathe of immigrant food memoirs, moving seamlessly between works by authors such as Austin Clarke, Madhur Jaffrey, Kim Sun e, Diana Abu-Jaber, Eduardo Machado, Colette Rossant, Maya Angelou, and Jonathan Safran Foer. The Immigrant Kitchen describes how these memoirs function as a complex and engaging mass media genre that caters to multiple reading constituencies. Specifically, they entertain readers with personal anecdotes and recollections, teach new culinary skills through recipes, share insight into different cultural mores through ethnographic and reportorial discussions of life in other countries, and attest to the impact that an individual's legal immigration into the United States continues to have down through the generations of his or her American-born families. Vivian Nun Halloran is professor of English at Indiana University Bloomington. She is a Caribbeanist by training, and a literary food studies scholar by vocation. She is the author of Exhibiting Slavery and is currently working on her next book that examines those moments when Americans of Caribbean descent address themselves to the American people to share the lessons of their immigrant upbringing. She is also working on two digital humanities projects. Twitter: @HalloranVivian Amir Sayadabdi is a lecturer in Anthropology at Victoria University of Wellington. He is mainly interested in anthropology of food and its intersection with gender studies, migration studies, and studies of race, ethnicity, and nationalism. Learn more about your ad choices.

I really didn't mean it the way it sounded. My near daily call with my friend, George, does not have a set time, though it usually takes place in the 5 to 9 p.m. window . Such was the case last Sunday when George called while I was busy making turnip and sorrel soup in the kitchen. I put the phone on speaker for our conversation and set it out on the counter, allowing me two free hands to work. About the turnip based soup: It was occasioned by my having accidentally pulled up several turnips while weeding to plant the last rows of the year. I noticed that the sorrel, two beds away, was in need of cutting back. It was the garden itself that dictated the ingredients, while the advent of cooler weather suggested that a hearty soup was just the way to take advantage of them. This, for me, has indeed been the summer of the turnip. It's really the first time I've enjoyed this vegetable. I started growing the sweeter smaller Japanese white turnip varieties four or five years ago, but generally focused on selling rather than eating them. Having been introduced to turnips through the strong, bitter taste of the traditional purple topped variety, I mistrusted any vegetable named turnip. But this spring my friend Steve chastised me for failing to take advantage of growing a vegetable he swore was both nutritious and delicious, and I vowed to make an effort to appreciate it. Thanks to other friends, the effort worked. Tom explained to me that these turnips were called salad turnips, and when picked at radish size were excellent sliced raw as a sweeter, slightly less sharp version of the radish. I developed a strong taste for those eruptions of flavor. Éric made turnip and sorrel soup, a recipe he adapted from a parsnip and sorrel soup he had long been fond of. It turned out that the simple combination of sauteed onions and turnips and wilted sorrel leaves, blended with broth (see recipe below), is both filling and sprightly, waking up all those little taste buds on your tongue. Inspired by the pleasures my friends introduced me to, I started experimenting on my own. While I really liked Madhur Jaffrey's turnip and tomato dish, the turnip use I liked best turned out to be one I figured out myself. Cutting fairly large turnips into julienne strips on the mandolin, I used them for quick stir fries. They blended well with Chinese spices, and the firmness and slight crunchiness they retained in stir frying made them a great substitute for water chestnuts. I combined them with shrimp and other vegetables (see sample recipe below) for a great 25 minute meal. The turnip has now been fully integrated into my diet. So there I was last Sunday chatting with George, who asked what noise he was hearing in the background. “Peeling turnips,” I said. And we chatted on for a while, with him occasionally making snarky little comments like “You do sound busy” and, when I switched to slicing the turnips and my work noises changed, “What are you doing now?” As I was winding up this stage of the prep, thinking he was impatient about my multitasking, I said “I'm on my last turnip, George.” There was something so world weary in my voice that he thought I meant I was at the end of my rope, and said “Poor you, how come?” And then he asked me if that was really an expression. “No,” I said, “it's not an expression, it's a fact. I have no more turnips to slice.” We burst into laughter, as it seemed in fact a kind of perfect expression for exasperation and exhaustion. We agreed we should use it henceforth in that sense. For now, though, I can't yet let myself be exhausted. Fall is just beginning. As I was reminded in the turnip patch, this is an active time of preparation for the seasons to come. While weeding I observed two grasshoppers mating on a turnip leaf, the small bright green male atop the large khaki colored female. She will now deposit her fertilized eggs in the soil to be ready to hatch next spring. Now that the cool weather has come, the sheep are similarly engaged. The young ram I neglected to band has been mounting the ewes, as have his castrated cousins who will produce no offspring but feel the urge to mount now nonetheless. As Cole Porter reminded us, “According to the Kinsey report Every average man you know Much prefers his lovey-dovey to court When the temperature is low.” (It's Too Darn Hot) Like the critters, I too am compelled to be active in this season, and not just amorously. In the immediate term there are scads of peppers and pears to harvest and preserve, which will be succeeded by cabbages, daikon radish and pumpkins. I've got trees and bushes on order that I must plant, as well as the garlic that must go in now to come up in the spring. I'm about to inherit dozens of iris corms George has divided up from his garden. I have trimming to do and brush to clear and tender plants to haul inside. I must paint my still unpainted barn and stock it with a hay supply for the winter, and of course must get storm windows and doors up on the house. Come late November, when all this is done and I have harvested the last of the fall produce, I can then collapse in an easy chair and make full and accurate use of the expression, ” I'm on my last turnip, George.” The Recipes Turnip and Sorrel Soup à la Rouleau The proportions in this recipe (as I have adopted it from Éric) are very rough, and can be adjusted dramatically according to your taste for more emphasis on one taste or another. It's a soup, for God's sake, and can be different every time: Ingredients: 3 Tb butter 1 lb. turnips 1 1/2 sweet onions 1 large bunch sorrel 2 cups broth (vegetable or chicken) pinch of nutmeg salt and pepper to taste sour cream to taste Peel and thinly slice the turnips and onions. Sautee them in two tablespoons of butter in an enameled pot or dutch oven until soft but not browned. Shred the sorrel leaves, discarding stems, and in a separate pan wilt them down in the remaining butter, about 5 minutes. Add the sorrel to the turnips and onions, add the broth or water or a mix, a touch of freshly ground nutmeg and salt and pepper to taste. Simmer together for a while and then blend in a blender or with an immersion blender. You can simmer down to desired thickness (or thin with water as needed). Shortly before serving, add in sour cream to taste, but don't bring to a boil, just heat through. Quick Stir Fry à la Scherzer for a solo quick meal. As with the soup, the proportions and even the constituent vegetables can be varied to your taste. Zuccini and eggplant are also good candidates for inclusion. Ingredients: 1 Tb cumin seed 1 star anise 1 clove garlic and 1 1/2 inch cube of ginger, both minced 1 poblano pepper (or other slightly hot pepper), cored, de-seeded and julienned 1 carrot, julienned 1 scallion chopped in 1/4″ pieces 1 large or 2 medium turnips, peeled and julienned 8 peeled and deveined shrimp 1 Tb. soy sauce 1 Tb. rice vinegar 1 tsp. mirin 2 Tb. hoisin sauce 3 Tb. vegetable oil chopped fresh coriander In a wok, heat the oil, star anise and cumin seed over high heat. When the cumin seeds begin to pop, add the garlic and ginger and stir fry for 30 seconds, then add the shrimp and cook til done, about 4 to 5 minutes. Remove the shrimp to a plate, add more oil to the wok if necessary, and when hot stir fry the pepper , carrot and turnips for about two minutes. Add the soy sauce and vinegar and a couple of tablespoons of water, stir in and reduce to medium heat and cover and steam for about 8 minutes. Uncover, add the mirin and hoisin sauce and the shrimp, mix all and when heated through serve with garnish of scallion and fresh chopped coriander. Serve with rice.

Patricia Velásquez is our very first supermodel turned actress on the show! You Might Know Her From The Mummy, The Mummy Returns, The Curse of La Llorona, Arrested Development, Liz in September, American Family, and The L Word. Patricia opened up about her decision to publicly come out in her memoir Straight Walk : A Supermodel's Journey to Finding Her Truth on the heels of headlining Liz in September, the first Spanish language film about lesbians. We talked about how The Mummy Returns is lesbian canon, why her character on The L Word didn’t get more to do, and what it was like to be on the set of Arrested Development with a bunch of comedy men (and Liza!). All that, plus Patricia gives us the dream exercise that she used to make peace with La Llorona, and tells us tales of making history as the first Latina (and lesbian) supermodel, who happened to be in a relationship with Sandra Bernhard in the 1990s.

This podcast covers New Girl Season 1, Episode 23, Backslide, which originally aired on May 1, 2012 and was written by David Quandt and directed by Nanette Burstein.Here’s a quick recap of the episode:Jess is upset about breaking up with Russell and after learning about the term “backsliding”, she sleeps with an ex. Nick is still pursuing his relationship with Caroline even though the loftmates are advising against it. Schmidt’s still dealing with his broken penis and meets Cece’s grandmother while Winston gets drunk with his boss and ends up with a new accessory for everyone to make fun of.We discuss Pop Culture References such as:The River by Joni Mitchell - While Jess was wallowing over her breakup with Russell, she played The River by Joni Mitchell on repeat in her room.Tom Waits - Nick refers to the voice in his head sounding like Tom Waits and later in the episode Jess imitates what Tom Waits would sound like. Additional Pop Culture References such as:Cylon - After asking herself if she was “self-sabotaging” her relationship with Russell, Jess asked herself if she was a Cylon. Cylons are a fictional, artificially-intelligent race of machines in the Battlestar Galactica series. Grateful Dead Bears - When Nick was looking at the apartment with Caroline, she asked him where the Grateful Dead Bears were going to dance. The Grateful Dead is a band formed in 1965 in Palo Alto, California. The “bears” were initially designed by artist Bob Thomas to appear on the back cover of the band’s 1973 album, The History of the Grateful Dead, Volume 1 (Bear’s Choice). They have come to be a symbol for many things but are most notably used as a symbol for the band. Bill Clinton/Monica Lewinsky - When Jess finds out that Paul cheated on his girlfriend when he slept with her, he claims to know what Bill Clinton felt like and Jess says she knows how Monica Lewinsky felt. Bill Clinton was a former US president who was impeached after lying to a grand jury about his affair with Monica Lewinsky, who was at the time a White House intern.“Shall I compare thee to a Summer's day…” (Sonnet 18) - When Nick is watching past Nick be sad over Caroline, Schmidt retrieves the poem past Nick wrote about Caroline. The poem began with the beginning of Shakespeare’s Sonnet 18, which is one of Shakespeare’s best-known sonnets. Batmen - When Schmidt and Cece go to the nursing home to visit Cece’s dadi, another resident shared that he mentions he and his wife had been together through four different “batmen”. Since 1943, there have been 9 actors who have played Batman on the big and small screens. Yoda - When Schmidt is talking to Cece’s dadi and friends, he mentions they are like real live yodas. Yoda is a small, wrinkly, green character from the movie franchise Star Wars. Winston’s Earrings - Throughout the episode, the loftmates made fun of Winston by comparing him to many famous references including the below:Disney Pirate Movie / Captain Black Sparrow - This is a reference to the movie The Pirates of the Caribbean where the main character is an eccentric pirate named Captain Jack Sparrow. The first movie came out in 2003 and it has since had 4 more feature films with another 2 potentially being made.George Michael - George Michael was a member of the music duo Wham! who later embarked on a solo career. When he died in 2016 he was considered one of the best-selling music artists of all time and achieved eight number one songs on the US Billboard Hot 100.Carnival - This is a reference to the Western Christian festive season before Lent and occurs in February or early March. It involves public celebrations like parades, street parties, and has elements of a circus. Typically the festival has attendees in costumes and masks and celebrate by eating and drinking excessively.Mr. T - Mr. T is an alias for Lawrence Tureaud who is an American actor, TV personality, bodyguard, and professional wrestler. His catchphrase “I pity the fool!” is from his character on Rocky III and became his trademark which led him to have his own reality show.Lil Wayne - Lil Wayne is an American rapper, singer, songwriter, and actor who is known as one of the most influential hip hop artists of his generation. He joined Cash Money Records as the youngest member at the age of 12.Shaquille O'Neal - Shaquille “Shaq” O’Neal is an American former basketball player who spent 19 years in the NBA. He was also one of the first African Americans to portray a major comic book superhero in a motion picture and has continued to act since.We also cover a “Schmidtism” when Schmidt tries to cheer Jess up at the beginning of the episode. For “Not in 2020” on this episode we discuss how Cece’s dressing down to avoid discomfort for Schmidt was compared to dressing like a “women’s study major”. We also discuss how Paul called Winston “Washington” and Jess referred to Jenn as “Asian me” and herself as the “Caucasian you”. We also explore the careers of Phil Hendrie, Melissa Tang, and Madhur Jaffrey, the guest stars of this episode.This episode got an 8/10 Rating from Kritika and Kelly and we both had the same favorite character: Jess!Thanks for listening and stay tuned for Episode 24!Music: "Hotshot” by scottholmesmusic.comFollow us on Twitter, Instagram or email us at whosthatgirlpod@gmail.com!Website: https://smallscreenchatter.com/
Aasif Mandvi (The Daily Show, Evil) and Madhur Jaffrey (Madhur Jaffrey's Curry Nation, I Feel Bad) co-star in this Indian story about a wise king, a generous shoemaker, and a priceless pair of shoes.
And why some make the transition faster than others….Over the years on The Sporkful, Dan has explored an idea that’s changed the way he understands food in the U.S.: You can track an immigrant group’s assimilation in America by looking at whether their food is perceived as American, or foreign. Why is pizza accepted as American, while wonton soup is considered foreign — even though Chinese immigrants came to America in large numbers before Italian immigrants? This week we continue to explore this question with Professor Krishnendu Ray, who first explained this concept on our show, as well as chef and recipe developer Yewande Komolafe, and cookbook authors Madhur Jaffrey and Priya Krishna.

Cool BeansThe Ultimate Guide to Cooking with the World's Most Versatile Plant-Based Protein, with 125 RecipesBy Joe Yonan Intro: Welcome to the number one cookbook podcast, Cookery by the Book, with Suzy Chase. She's just a home cook in New York City, sitting at her dining room table talking to cookbook authors.Joe Yonan: Hi, I am Joe Yonan. I'm the food editor of the Washington Post and my latest cookbook is called Cool Beans.Suzy Chase: For more Cookery by the Book, you can follow me on Instagram. If you enjoy this podcast, please be sure to share it with a friend, I'm always looking for new people to enjoy Cookery by the Book. Now, on with the show. You're the food and dining editor at the Washington Post. You have multiple James Beard awards and an ICP award, and you're the best thing to come out of West Texas since Buddy Holly. So I met you last April when I was at WaPo meeting Bonnie Benwick, and we chatted briefly about this cookbook and I'm so excited to talk with you about it today on my podcast.Joe Yonan: Thank you. Thank you so much for having me.Suzy Chase: So when you started writing the first drafts of this cookbook, could you see the bean trend on the horizon for 2020?Joe Yonan: I mean, I felt something coming together, but I can't say I knew exactly and was incredibly confident that it was going to come true. I certainly have been in love with beans for so long, but I certainly felt that with the growing interest in plant-based cooking and then with the exponential growth of interest in a little appliance called the Instant Pot and then continued interest in Heirloom Beans companies like Rancho Gordo. I did start to sense that the timing might end up being really good.Suzy Chase: I love that beans are starting to play a starring role in American dishes.Joe Yonan: Yes. I mean, I feel like one of the reasons that maybe beans have the reputation or have had the sort of fusty reputation that they have had here has been that, in our own cooking, they've been associated a lot with the past and with maybe with the '60s and '70s and maybe the health food movement. Whereas in other countries, of course, they've been the bedrock of cuisines for centuries.Joe Yonan: And I think we in America sometimes have historically paid more attention to the really high-end cooking from other countries. The classical cooking, the celebration cooking. And beans have for so long been really an everyday ingredient or they've been the source of sustenance for people who were trying to make ends meet, but who knew that they could depend on this incredible shelf-stable source of nutrition and they knew how to cook it in really delicious ways. And I think we've been paying more and more attention to that kind of cooking over the last few years.Suzy Chase: You wrote in the cookbook, "My own bean journey took a turn about a decade ago." What happened then? It sounds so mysterious.Joe Yonan: Right. A little fork in the road. It actually was very gradual. I started realizing that I was... It's like that horrible song from a couple of decades ago, I think I'm turning Japanese. I started realizing that I thought I was turning vegetarian. And it caught me off guard a little bit. I remember I was planning dinner, a dinner party over the weekend and I was trying to decide what to make and I opened up my freezer and fridge and was looking through my pantry, like you do, and I noticed that in my freezer there were all of these pounds and packages of really beautiful, humanely raised meat that I hadn't been cooking at home.Joe Yonan: I had been waiting for the chance to make for other people because I wasn't really cooking meat at home for myself. And that's when I started realizing that I was really moving toward a plant-based diet instinctively and I was feeling better and better as I did. So I just kept moving in that direction. And beans were always part of it. I also write that I'm not sure I would have actually continued along that path if was not for discovering beautiful heirloom beans by Rancho Gordo. Really they changed the way that I thought about beans.Suzy Chase: You touched on this a few minutes ago, but in Cool Beans you teach us home cooks how to cook beans in a slow cooker, on the stove, and in the Instant Pot. Can you talk a little bit about that?Joe Yonan: I'm just puttering around the house. Certainly, I will just put a pot of beans on the stove or even in the oven and cook them really gently. I like to bring them to a boil for 10 or 15 minutes at the outset and then lower the heat as low as it can go and cook them really slowly. And that's beautiful. The house fills up with that beautiful smell of beans cooking and it's wonderful. I'd sometimes even cook them in this clay bean pot that a friend gave me and that's an incredible way to cook them as well.Joe Yonan: But on any given weeknight when I really want a pot of beans pretty quickly and I should say more and more, even on the weekends, I do turn to my trusty Instant Pot. There's nothing easier than the whole set it and forget it thing. You don't have to wait and watch until it comes up to pressure and then adjust the heat, you don't have to set a timer to know when it's done and then turn the heat off or down or whatever you're doing. You just set it. And what happens is, you get these really nicely cooked beans, but I do think that the key with an Instant Pot is to cook them uncovered for maybe another 10 or 15 minutes after you cook them. It concentrates the broth. The Instant Pot, like other pressure cookers too, is so sealed up tight that there's no evaporation of liquid when the beans are cooking.Joe Yonan: So unlike when you have it on the stove top or in the oven where it's cooking slowly, the water just stays in there. And so it can be, the broth can be a little more lackluster than when you cook it on the stove top. As Steve Sando of Rancho Gordo puts it, "It breathes life back into the beans." The instant pot proves that you don't really have to soak beans. There's reasons why you might, which I'm sure we can get into, but you really don't have to and it makes beans a product that you can, an ingredient, a fabulous ingredient that you can make any day of the week.Suzy Chase: Speaking of broth, I always thought that you needed to throw in a ham hock or some chicken broth to make beans flavorful. So you're saying the beans make up the flavorful broth on their own?Joe Yonan: Absolutely. You need salt, of course, like you do with any good cooking. But yeah, the beans, especially I would say, if you haven't soaked the beans, soaking, there's lots of reasons why you might want to soak, but if you soak you definitely lose some of that flavor, especially with a thinner skinned bean like a black bean. Try them side by side. Soak a pound of black beans and cook it next to a pound of black beans that you did not soak and just be prepared to marvel at the difference. One is inky black and full of flavor and one is grayish, pale lavender and not as much flavor.Joe Yonan: Yeah, I really wanted to prove to people in this book that you don't need that ham hock. That I think that when beans are cooked from dried, especially if they're high quality beans, but even really good supermarket beans, I talk a lot about Rancho Gordo and companies like Camellia, but I also really like Goya if you're getting supermarket beans. And if you cook them from dried with salt and with kombu, which I like to use, it's a dried seaweed from Japan and it helps actually soften the beans and maybe a bay leaf, an onion and garlic and you cook them until they're really tender.Joe Yonan: I think that that broth rivals anything that you can get from a chicken. Honestly. I mean I've cooked with chefs who might cook with this fabulously talented Mexican chef, Mexican-American chef, Christian Arabian here in DC. And the first thing that he did after he cooked this incredible pot of black beans, before he did anything else with it, was pour out two cups of the cooking water, the cooking liquid, and we sipped it like a soup. That's how delicious it was. There was nothing else in it.Suzy Chase: So the USDA categorizes beans as a protein and a vegetable.Joe Yonan: Yeah.Suzy Chase: And even the folks living in the blue zones where people live the longest and eat the healthiest eat one cup of beans per person a day. Can you talk a little bit about the nutritional aspect of beans?Joe Yonan: People know the song, right? Good for your heart.Suzy Chase: Why don't you sing it?Joe Yonan: I'm so sorry to inform you that I happen to be coming down with a cold so I won't be able to fulfill your-Suzy Chase: Oh shoot.Joe Yonan: singing request Suzy today, any other day.Suzy Chase: Okay.Joe Yonan: Well, they, so what I find most amazing about beans, I mean certainly the nutritional benefits include antioxidants and fiber really is the big one. But yes, they also improve our gut health. There's some school of thought that the very thing that we find difficult to digest, the oligosaccharides also is feeding our gut biome. So maybe when it comes to flatulence, we should all just give each other a break, open some windows and get used to it. The page in which I talk about this in the book, I headline, let the music play. With the idea being that it's really not that big of a deal unless you find it uncomfortable.Joe Yonan: And I know some people certainly find it actually uncomfortable. And for those people I want, certainly want them to try to do what they can do to reduce it. But beans also, they help stabilize your blood sugar. They might lower your cholesterol. One of the most interesting things that I came across in my research for the book was that there have been studies published that meals based on beans are actually more satisfying than meals based on animal proteins, meaning that people were full longer and reported a higher sense of satiety.Suzy Chase: I find that too, don't you?Joe Yonan: Yeah. Oh yeah, yeah, absolutely.Suzy Chase: And you don't feel as weighed down.Joe Yonan: Right. They're simultaneously satisfying and, and yeah, I mean, to me they're energizing, so I always feel great when I eat them.Suzy Chase: So I can't get into aquafaba.Joe Yonan: Okay, want me to help you?Suzy Chase: Yes please.Joe Yonan: Well, I would say you should try a recipe like the chocolate mousse recipe in Cool Beans. It's really easy and shows off how easy it is to use aquafaba the way you would use egg whites. It's based on Julia child's classic chocolate mousse recipe and I wish I could tell you that I labored and tested and retested and tweaked and all of this to make it work. But the fact is it worked the first time, it's just, aquafaba was "discovered" by a, I believe it was a French vegan pastry chef who was looking for something to substitute for eggs and had canned chickpeas around, as you do and realized that the liquid and the viscosity of the liquid reminded him of egg whites. So he just thought, "Oh, I wonder if they wouldn't whip up like that." And they do. I mean you can whip them and add sugar to them and they turn silky white and glossy and they'll hold stiff peaks.Joe Yonan: Especially if you use a little cream of tartar, which I did in the mousse recipe. It stabilizes them the same way it stabilizes egg whites. I only use it in a couple of places in the book for that recipe, and then I make a margarita. That's sort of a twist on one that Jose Andre serves at a restaurant here in DC that has what he calls salt air on top, which is this layer of salty foam that I'm sure they're putting through a nitrogen canister or CO2 canister or something to get the foam, but I do it with the aquafaba.Suzy Chase: Yesterday I made your recipe for Texas-Style Bowl O’ Red Beans.Joe Yonan: Excellent.Suzy Chase: On page 112. Can you describe this?Joe Yonan: I am a Texan and when you're a Texan, then you find yourself telling people all the time, "That's not real chili, that's not real chili." Because real Texas chili doesn't have beans. It doesn't have tomatoes. It's really just chili con carne ne, right. It's chilis with meat. Well, when you are a Texas cook, who used to be a purist but find yourself not eating meat anymore, you have to give all that up. Don't you, Suzy?Suzy Chase: You aren't really giving anything up.Joe Yonan: No. I guess what I'm mean is you have to give up the purism.Suzy Chase: Yeah.Joe Yonan: That's the only thing you're giving up is the sense that like this is the only way to cook a pot of Texas chili. But then when I was researching the book, I thought, I really love the straightforward nature of that Texas bowl of red they call it. It's just so complex in flavor, but it's so straightforward and you just treat the meat in that recipe so wonderfully that I thought, "Why don't I just all of that same technique and ingredients but use beans?" So that's what I do in this recipe. It's mostly kidney beans, red kidney beans, and a smaller amount of black beans. I like the combo together.Joe Yonan: I don't usually cook different varieties of beans together. But this is one where I thought that it worked and you cook them for so long, either on the stove top or you can certainly do it in the pressure cooker for a much shorter period. And they just get really, really tender packed with flavor. I like to mash a little bit of them in the pot and leave some of the other ones whole. And then you've got this incredible flavor and it's all beans. And you do the same thing you would do with a purist Texas chili and serve it with those simple accompaniments on top.Suzy Chase: So I was nervous about using dry beans and I thought it wouldn't be as creamy as canned, but oh my goodness. After five hours of simmering, I had the best pot of glorious beans. I can't wait to put it on my eggs tomorrow too.Joe Yonan: Great.Suzy Chase: I'm so excited. Yay. Now for my segment called my favorite cookbook. Aside from this cookbook, what is your all time favorite cookbook and why?Joe Yonan: Wow, that is a question. All time favorite?Suzy Chase: All time.Joe Yonan: All time. All time. All time. There's been a lot. I've had a lot of time. Well, I'll tell you, I'm a huge fan of Amy Chaplain's work. She wrote Whole Food Cooking Every Day, and I think her recipes are stellar. And whenever I cook out of a book, I met, I know Amy, she and I are friends and I'm so jealous of, I don't know, her effortlessness in the kitchen. She's Australian and she's got that incredible palette and everything she cooks is incredibly bright, flavored and everything comes together so wonderfully and it feels so, I don't want to say healthy, it feels nourishing, which I think is a different feeling. But God, there's so many others that I feel like I could mention. I mean Madhur Jaffrey's books. I'm a big fan of Anna Jones, the British Vegetarian Cookbook author. Oh God, I'm leaving out a million, million people.Joe Yonan: But I would say off the top of my head, if I had to pick one, even though it came out recently, it would be Whole Food Cooking Every Day.Suzy Chase: Where can we find you on the web and social media?Joe Yonan: I make it so easy for people. So everything about me is just Joe Yonan. So it's www.joeynan.com. It's Twitter handle @joeyonan. It's Instagram, Joe Yonan. It's Facebook Joe Yonan. No fancy names. Just me.Suzy Chase: This has been so much fun. Thanks Joe, for coming on Cookery by the Book podcast.Joe Yonan: Thank you for having me, Suzy. I loved it.Outro: Subscribe over on CookerybytheBook.com and thanks for listening to the number one cookbook podcast, Cookery by the Book.

Madhur Jaffrey is more than an icon. As Padma put it at this year’s Cherry Bombe Jubilee Conference, “She is the greatest living writer on Indian food—ever.” Padma, the Top Chef star and best-selling author, interviewed Madhur at Jubilee and it was a riveting conversation that touched on a wide range of topics: protesting with Mahatma Gandhi, working with the legendary cookbook editor Judith Jones, facing discrimination as an Indian actress, and cheering on the young women championing both Indian food and representation today, like Priya Krishna and Meera Sodha. Madhur, who has written dozens of cookbooks, published her latest this spring, *Madhur Jaffrey's Instantly Indian Cookbook: Modern and Classic Recipes for the Instant Pot. * Introducing Madhur and Padma are Suzanne and Michelle Rousseau. The sisters and culinary superstars from Jamaica are the authors of the cookbooks Provisions and Caribbean Potluck. Stay tuned to hear who Ellen King of Hewn in Evanston, Illinois, thinks is the bombe! Thank you to Le Cordon Bleu Culinary Schools and Traeger Wood Fired Grills for supporting our show.

In this episode of The Awful and Awesome Entertainment Wrap, hosts Rajyasree Sen and Abhinandan Sekhri discuss the latest How To Train Your Dragon, Vice, Us, A Star is Born, The Favourite and much more.The podcast kicks off with Abhinandan and Rajyasree discussing animated movies, particularly the How To Train Your Dragon series. Though Abhinandan liked the earlier parts, the latest offering didn't captivate him. Rajyasree, who's not passionate about animated movies, moves on to the Oscar-nominated movie Vice, a comic-biopic on former US Vice President Dick Cheney. She says the movie captures the nature of politics at the time, Cheney's relationship with Donal Rumsfeld, and the charismatic interactions and motivations of the wives of prominent political leaders.Abhinandan expresses his dissatisfaction with Jordan Peele's movie Us (2019) which may also stem from his dislike of horror films in general. He says he predicted the plot minutes into the movie. Rajyasree says she enjoys most of Peele's work. "Everything is a commentary with Jordan Peele.” She recommends Get Out by the same director. Moving on to the movie A Star is Born, Rajyasree says the actors' performances and the movie in general were adequate, but not challenging. Abhinandan remarks that with musicals, there are often two kinds of reviews: those who like the movie too much, and those who didn't. He says: "A Star is Born, like La La Land, had two kinds of reviews. There were the La La Land haters and there were people who said it was just the most amazing film ever. Same thing with A Star is Born.”Rajyasree then gives a brief synopsis of the movie The Favourite, saying she enjoyed watching it and found it funny. Abhinandan seems to lose interest just from its description. Rajyasree then says she found the mini-series A Very English Scandal extremely intriguing and amusing, and a wonderful commentary of the time. "It's very funny because it's British, right?" she says. Abhinandan agrees that British humour is very good.The discussion also spans Akshay Kumar's new advertisement for Suthol and Madhur Jaffrey's music video Nani. Rajyasree and Abhinandan also plan on watching the upcoming movies PM Narendra Modi and The Tashkent Files—notwithstanding their dread.Tune in for more!

Sheila Dillon meets Madhur Jaffrey, Indian cooking legend, who's just returned from the sub-continent on her latest adventures into its vast food culture.This year the actress, broadcaster and food writer turns eighty. She left Delhi sixty years ago to pursue a career in the west, but still remains the world's most influential and respected exponents of Indian cuisine. With her BBC television series and more than fifteen books she's managed to convey the rich history and flavours of authentic Indian regional cooking. Now, as India becomes one of the most important economies in the world, and a nation increasingly interested in western tastes and modern brands, Sheila meets Madhur to reflect on her early food life in Delhi and to ask her about a rapidly changing India.This is a life story of exquisite family meals in the 1930's that mixed British and Indian traditions, of school lunches where food would be shared between friends from very different food backgrounds and where watching a mushroom dish, "devoured by greedy men" was one of the images that led her to leave India. The programme also includes a fascinating encounter between Madhur and a British food tradition, chips with curry sauce.Producer: Dan Saladino.

Neil MacGregor continues his retelling of human history using 100 selected objects from the British Museum. This week he explores the profound changes that humans experienced at the end of the Ice Age. By this period, humanity is reconsidering its place in the world and turning its attention to food, power, worship, and human relationships. But then, as now, one of the most important parts of human existence was finding enough food to survive. Taking a pestle from Papua New Guinea as an example, Neil asks why our ancestors decided to grow and cook new foods. The answer provides us with a telling insight into the way early humans settled on the land. Becoming farmers and eating food that was harder for other animals to digest made us a formidable force in the food chain. The impact on our environment of this shift to cookery and cultivation is still being felt. Neil is joined by Indian food writer Madhur Jaffrey, campaigner Sir Bob Geldof and archaeologist Professor Martin Jones
