Obsessed (with Cooking Perfection), But In the Best Way

from All Of It with Alison Stewart · host WNYC

There may be no such thing as "the best," but journalist and food writer Ella Quittner didn't let that stop her from diving into ways to make "the best" scrambled eggs, pasta, meatballs, or even bacon. She discusses her new cookbook, Obsessed With the Best: 100+ Methodically Perfected Recipes Based on 20+ Head-to-Head Tests, in which she records her deeply researched techniques to use to produce maximal flavor with minimum effort.
