Chef J. Kenji López-Alt (S7/Ep.03)

J. Kenji López-Alt is a chef, dad, NY Times best-selling author of The Food Lab, NY Times food columnist and the host of “Kenji’s Cooking Show,” a YouTube show with over a million subscribers. He’s an MIT graduate who parlayed his education into a career in the kitchen. We discuss how he made his way from working in science labs to some of the best kitchens in Boston, his process in testing recipes and techniques (anyone else test hard boiled eggs over 1000 times?!), we dive deep into his most recent book, The Wok, and so much more. He is an incredible advocate for No Kid Hungry, initially setting out to raise $5,000 and has currently raised over $126,000! He is far and away one of our host’s most trusted culinary resources.
