Today on the podcast I'm joined by my friend Rachel Remmes to discuss good food, cooking, writing, and discovering our authentic passions in a world full of distractions and mixed motivations. You'll get some great recipes and cooking tips as well as some broader personal reflections about how to establish a life that reflects our true joys and desires. 

 

Rachel Remmes is a recovering academic and passionate at-home chef who lives in New York City with her husband and three young children. Although she has been cooking avidly for as long as she can remember, in October 2023 she launched a substack - Can't Help But Cook. Her goal with this substack is to reignite an appreciation for at-home cooking by learning the fundamentals all while teaching her readers how to correctly salt meat and poach fish along the way.

 

Rachel, who earned a masters in art history, views cooking as a creative art form that adds beauty and meaning to our lives in the same way as a good book or a stunning painting. Readers of her substack can enjoy her two published cookbook reviews. Additionally they can anticipate more cookbooks reviews this year, along with theoretical dinner guest conversations, including one with writer/director, Greta Gerwig, and another with the 20th-centuty Norwegian novelist, Sigrid Undset.
