Show Notes

It is time now to turn to our sizzling, Covid-era heartthrob, the kitchen, and unpack all its secrets. Going through your kitchen tools is like reexamining your dating history. Some tools are frivolous, some remind us of our parents, some we snapped up on a whim and can’t live without, some are pretty but what the heck were we thinking?

We talk tools with food writer and stylist Ali Dunworth, Bob Toal, founder of Dublin’s cooking supply shop Triggerfish Cookshop, and Maria Llamas, who runs the legendary cooking school and supply shop Alambique in Madrid.

From sous-vide to salad-spinners, we examine the world of kitchen utensils. What utensils make our kitchens tick? Which tools fill us with shame?

Plus we find out why Blanca has a corner in her kitchen that looks like a medieval dungeon.
