Our guest this week is Deb Perelman, author of three cookbooks, including most recently, SMITTEN KITCHEN KEEPERS. She’s not just a great cook, she’s like a kitchen fairy godmother. Deb taught Annmarie how to roast a chicken, how to roll dumplings, and how not to fear mushrooms. Because of her Smitten Kitchen website, Deb and Annmarie have cooked hundreds of meals together, but until today, they’d never met. In this episode, Deb and Annmarie discuss grandma cooking, how lasagna might save your marriage, and how shared recipes can foster love, understanding, and joy. Learn more about your ad choices.
