In an interview from 2020, the chef Samin Nosrat talked about fame, veganism, depression, and how to write a great cookbook.

of the same name débuted a year later; it’s a four-episode travelogue in which Nosrat explores each of the book’s central topics in situ—learning about salt in Japan, acid in Mexico, fat in Italy, and heat back home, in California. When the show was released, it felt like everyone with a Netflix log-in fell in love with Nosrat all at once: her disarming grin, her unselfconscious enthusiasm, the way she threw herself so exuberantly into the sensory pleasures of both making and eating food.
