SALT + SPINE is hosted by Brian Hogan Stewart.

Today's Episode: Alison Roman

This week, we're excited to welcome Alison Roman to SALT + SPINE, the podcast on stories behind cookbooks.

Alison is the author of Dining In: Highly Cookable Recipes and a contributor to Bon Appetit magazine and the New York Times. She also wrote Lemons (Short Stack).

After working in restaurants and bakeries in San Francisco and New York City, Alison jumped to food media, joining the team at Bon Appetit and eventually serving as the magazine’s Senior Food Editor, where she developed recipes that would define her cooking style.

We sat down with Alison at our studio in San Francisco’s The Civic Kitchen to discuss her style of cooking, her advice for home cooks, the uber-viral The Cookie, and what lipsticks to pair with various dishes.
