    The Recipe with Kenji and Deb

    Hi, we’re Deb Perelman (Smitten Kitchen) and J. Kenji López-Alt (Serious Eats, The Food Lab, The Wok). We’re professional home cooks, which means we can – and will – make the same meal 57 times in a row on the quest for the perfect recipe. Is it crazy? For us, no, because we do this for a living. But for you? Yes, probably. Which is why you should listen to The Recipe with Kenji and Deb. You’ll hear us talk about what goes into writing our recipes — the techniques we test, the ingredients we taste — so that you can be on your way to creating your own perfect recipe. Whether you’re cooking meatloaf, pancakes, or chicken soup in all its forms, we got you, and you’ve got this.

    The Recipe with Kenji and Deb is a proud member of Radiotopia from PRX, a network of independent and listener-supported podcasts. Discover audio with vision at radiotopia.fm.

    Take a Break with Home Cooking Nov 04, 2024
    Show notes

    Deb and Kenji are taking a break this week. Please enjoy this classic episode from Home Cooking, our fellow Radiotopia show about food.

    ******************************

    According to our callers, a big part of Thanksgiving seems to be making food for your loved ones that you only kind of like yourself. But can we make these dishes a little better for the people cooking them?! We’re gonna try. Plus, Demi Adejuyigbe (@electrolemon), tells about his quarantine baking adventures.

    Popcorn Oct 21, 2024
    Show notes

    Kenji and Deb are major, MAJOR fans of popcorn — “God’s gift to snacking” (two guesses who said that). One might actually call them a miracle of science. How does a hard af, yellow pebble turn into a fluffy white edible cloud? How does movie popcorn butter smell so heavenly without any butter? This is Popcornology 101, class is now in session.

    Recipes mentioned:

    • Spicy Caramel Popcorn (Smitten Kitchen)
    • Miso Black Sesame Caramel Corn (Smitten Kitchen)
    • Late Night Popcorn with Chorizo and Pecorino (Kenji’s YouTube)
    • Why I Love My Whirley Pop, the Ultimate Popcorn-Popping Product (Serious Eats)

    Baked Ziti Oct 07, 2024
    Show notes

    Kids say the darndest things, and so do Deb and Kenji. “Nobody likes penne.” “Chiffonade is pretentious.” “I have honestly no idea what my recipe contains.” And they’re not the only ones. There are people out there who call baked ziti — get this — lasagna.

    While baked ziti may be universally loved as a workhorse of catered buffets, potlucks, and meal trains, Deb and Kenji’s takes on the dish are worlds apart.

    Recipes mentioned:

    • My Old-Scholl Baked Ziti (Smitten Kitchen)
    • Easy Skillet Baked Ziti With Sausage and Ricotta Recipe (Serious Eats)
    • The Food Lab's No-Boil Baked Ziti Recipe (Serious Eats)

    Caesar Salad Sep 23, 2024
    Show notes

    In this episode, Deb and Kenji stop being polite and start getting real. Turns out, they weren’t born with encyclopedic knowledge of food; before each recording session, they consult…Wikipedia. (Stars, they’re just like us.)

    You may think of Caesar salad as the most ubiquitous of American salads. In fact, Caesar salad was invented in Mexico. However, it was invented by an American for Americans coming across the border to drink during Prohibition. Come to think of it, that may just be the most American thing ever. Also in this episode: the secret behind Worcestershire sauce and a hack for a quick Caesar dressing. Fax, no printer.

    Recipes mentioned:

    • Roberta’s Roasted Garlic Caesar Salad (Smitten Kitchen)
    • Chicken Caesar Salad (Smitten Kitchen)
    • The Best Caesar Salad (Serious Eats)
    • Kale Caesar Salad (Serious Eats)

    BLT Sep 09, 2024
    Show notes

    Deb: “This is the perfect sandwich.” Kenji: “This is my favorite sandwich of all time.” In fact, Kenji has gone way beyond just admiring and ingesting the Bacon-Lettuce-Tomato; as Isaac Newton captured the physical world with his laws of motion, Kenji has bestowed us with the 11 rules of the BLT. Deb has made her own significant contributions to the field of sandwich science, with the theory of seasonal variation of the summer BLT and "off-season" BLT.

    Recipes mentioned:

    • Runny Egg BLT Sandwich (Smitten Kitchen under Five Egg Sandwiches)
    • The Best BLT Sandwich (Serious Eats)

    Live from Seattle: Deb in conversation with Kenji Jul 29, 2024
    Show notes

    Kenji has many pans going on the fire at all times, one of which was directing this year’s Community Curated Series for Seattle Arts & Lectures. In January 2024, he invited his future podcast bestie Deb onstage with him to chop it up about recipe development (and theft!), family, and greasy bags of Dick’s.

    Thanks to Alison Stagner and Woogee Bae of Seattle Arts & Lectures for their help.

    Mailbag Part 2 Jul 01, 2024
    Show notes

    We know you don’t want to burn your food in the kitchen (unless it’s a char/sear kinda situation), but you know what else you don’t want to burn? You, the cook. Deb and Kenji reveal their tips for avoiding cooking burnout, as well as how to mine your own sodium citrate at home. Did your eyes get whiplash reading this? Buckle up because your letters took us all over the map: biscuits for every purpose, what kind of pancakes Barbie would eat, how to cook like a boss for 1-2 people.
