This week, we're excited to welcome LAZARUS LYNCH to Salt + Spine, the podcast on stories behind cookbooks.

Lazarus is a two-time winner of Chopped and host of Snapchat's first-ever cooking show. His first cookbook is Son of a Southern Chef. In today's show, we'll talk with Lazarus about how he got his start (and his foot in the door at Food Network), where he finds inspiration, and how he approached his first cookbook. Plus: We'll play Salt + Spine game with Lazarus.

ALSO IN TODAY'S SHOW:

> IN THE KITCHEN: Salt + Spine Kitchen Correspondent Sarah Varney cooks up two side dishes from Lazarus' book for a pig roast in Sonoma County, CA.

> FROM THE LIBRARY: Great Jones' Sierra Tishgart joins us to discuss a vintage cookbook from the Great Jones library. Tune in as we explore the 1981 Celebrity Cookbook by Johna Blinn – and get a look inside on the Great Jones Instagram.
