Salt, Fat, Acid, Heat

There is a chef named Samin Nosrat. She is Iranian and lives in California. She worked as a chef for many years and then wrote this cookbook about these 4 elements of cooking:

Salt

Fat

Acid

Heat

Her concept is if you understand these 4 things you will become a better cook.



She has a show on Netflix too, with 4 episodes about each of these 4 elements.
I loved watching them over the weekend. My whole family seemed to enjoy the shows too.
You can go to saltfatacidheat.com for more info. too.

Her cookbook is sold out online right now, but I'm excited to get one when I can.


 This was a fun way for me to begin the new year. Happy Cooking!!
You can listen to her fun interview on NPR too.

She says,

"This was an opportunity for me to elevate and honor home cooks,
most of whom are women and have been women for the great part of human history."
