The Zest

America’s Test Kitchen Co-Hosts Bridget Lancaster and Julia Collin Davison on Small Plates, Hot-Weather Meals and the Kitchen Equipment You Don’t Need


Listen Later

Whether you’re just learning to cook for yourself or you’ve been staging elaborate dinner parties for years, you can always learn something from America’s Test Kitchen. The long-running PBS television show features recipes, equipment reviews and taste tests to help make cooking at home more efficient and enjoyable.


On Sept. 20, ATK co-hosts Bridget Lancaster and Julia Collin Davison will be in St. Petersburg for a live event at the Palladium Theater in downtown St. Petersburg.


Bridget and Julia recently chatted with me from their homes in the Boston area, where America’s Test Kitchen films. In this conversation, they share advice for aspiring TV chefs, their favorite hot weather meals and the common kitchen equipment they say is overrated. They also discuss the new ATK cookbook, The Complete Small Plates Cookbook.
