Hi There! Thanks for finding The Talking Apron podcast, listen in as I discuss today's episode topic "Cooking for One: Scaling Down Recipes". This common challenge many of us face: scaling down recipes doesn't have an easy fix. At this time in the world's history, there are more people who choose to live alone, than any other time. And that means that the economics of providing packaging for "one", has not caught up with the demand. And due to the costs, it may never fully make the change. So what do we do? We/I navigate around those big packages to save money, prevent food waste, satisfy taste buds and stay healthy. Follow and subscribe to hear more kitchen, meal planning, tool topics in the future.
