Mortar & Pestle

Zhug, a Yemenite hot sauce, might be the next Sriracha. J. Kenji Lopez-Alt tells Lynne Rossetto Kasper all about it and the simple tools you need to make it. Anya Fernald swears by those same tools in her kitchen, and she chats with Russ Parsons about them and her rules for hosting a good party. In addition, Molly Birnbaum from America's Test Kitchen goes to college for frozen yogurt, Robin Ha draws a Korean cookbook, and Taste of Home's Mark Hagen has some ideas on what you can do with all that zucchini. Plus, artist Kiko Denzer shows Lynne how to carve a spoon. Broadcast dates for this episode: August 19, 2016 (originally aired) August 18, 2017 (rebroadcast)
