We chat with Phil Rosenthal, creator of “Somebody Feed Phil,” about eels in Japan, mold at Noma and his most memorable scene from “Everybody Loves Raymond.” Plus, Irina Georgescu gives us a lesson in Romanian baking, from delicious snack pies to her favorite ingredient—fermented dairy. We also make Colombian Cheese Buns, and Alex Aïnouz is on a mission to cut an onion in 20 seconds or less.

Get this week’s recipe for Columbian Cheese Buns here.
