Episode 8 – The Art of the One-Pot Wonder

On this week’s She’s Always on About Food…, we ladle into the global love affair with meals that simmer, braise, and bubble their way to perfection—all in a single vessel.

Segments

1. Humble Brilliance – Why one-pot meals are practical and poetic.

2. Around the World in a Pot – Biryani, tagine, oden, chili, gumbo—passport optional.

3. Science of Simmer – Maillard magic, gelatin glory, and flavour diffusion 101.

4. Cultural Soul Food – How stews and braises carry heritage (and heal hangovers).

5. Psychology of the Pot – Why the smell of a slow stew triggers nostalgia.

Whether it’s a clay tagine or non-stick Dutch oven, these dishes prove time is the tastiest ingredient of all.
