    727: Cooking by Feel with Vivian Howard & Nik Sharma

    When it comes to cooking, do you follow a recipe to a T, or do you do a little improv? This week, we learn a lot about cooking by feel with the star of the Peabody and Emmy-award-winning show A Chef’s Life, Vivian Howard.

Vivian’s latest book is This Will Make It Taste Good. Then, we take advice from the scientist-turned-cook Nik Sharma, author of The Flavor Equation, on how to be intuitive with our food.   Broadcast dates for this episode: January 22, 2021 (originally aired) January 28, 2022 (rebroadcast) November 1, 2024 (rebroadcast) When you shop using our links, we earn a small commission.
