119: Jenny Rosenstrach on Cookbooks That Chronicle Family Life

  • Résumé

  • Molly and Kristen speak with Jenny Rosenstrach about her family focused approach to food writing. She talks about her long running dinner diary, how her first book was a real time project and what went behind the decision to continue working around that theme. She explains why she includes a 'hook' in her recipes and how she landed on her unique recipe structure as well as the idea of a 'text test' for writing instructions. She shares her approach to recipe development, how she's built an audience with her relatable, inviting voice and the reasoning behind her relaxed approach to photography. Finally she tells us the book she will never write and leaves us with a bit of advice for aspiring food writers.

    Hosts: Kate Leahy + Molly Stevens + Kristin Donnelly + Andrea Nguyen

    Editor: Abby Cerquitella
