- Samin Nosrat's Kitchen Favorites
Chef and cookbook author Samin Nosrat, best known for Salt Fat Acid Heat , joins us to talk about her new book Good Things —and how she keeps cooking joyful, even in a small home kitchen. She shares the tools she relies on daily, the condiments that transform simple meals, and her approach to entertaining without burning out. This episode covers: How she organizes her tiny kitchen: Borrowing tricks from restaurant kitchens, Samin makes a small space efficient and inviting. The essential knives and sharpeners she recommends: Good blades (and the right sharpener) make prep faster, safer, and more fun. Tools she swears by for everyday cooking: From an immersion blender to a carbon steel pan, her kitchen MVPs do heavy lifting. When single-use tools are worth it: A food mill or Japanese mandoline can feel niche but save time and improve results. Condiments that elevate simple meals: Chili crisp, salsa macha, and preserved lemon paste turn basics into showstoppers. Her philosophy on entertaining: It’s about connection, not perfection—and choosing dishes that don’t leave you stuck in the kitchen. Also, Samin shared more tips for hosting a stress-free dinner party with Wirecutter kitchen writer Maki Yazawatrio. Wirecutter Picks in Samin's Kitchen: The Y peeler Samin reaches for daily: Kuhn Rikon Original Swiss Peeler The sleek knife block in Samin’s small kitchen: Benchcrafted Mag-Blok The spatula she can’t cook without: GIR Silicone Spatula A handy and compact kitchen workhorse: Cuisinart Core Custom 4-Cup Mini Chopper Other Products Samin Loves: How she keeps pans spotless: Field Company Chainmail Scrubber A fancy at-home knife sharpener: Tormek Knife Sharpener Olive oil that supports a good cause: Seka Hills Olive Oil Another olive oil Samin counts on: California Olive Ranch A special condiment Samin loves: Kuali Salsa Macha Samin says she also keeps a carbon steel pan, fish spatula, microplane, mandoline, immersion blender, and spice grinder in her kitchen for everyday use.

From going to the beach to trying new hobbies, and from enjoying life through the eyes of her puppy Fava to making time for hanging in a hammock in her garden, Samin shared her own manual to joy.

- Samin Nosrat on cooking, community and ritual
Samin Nosrat's 2017 debut “Salt, Fat, Acid, Heat” was a breakout hit in the cooking world — teaching people of all skill levels the building blocks of flavor. Nosrat won a James Beard award and the book was adapted into a Netflix documentary. After her massive success, Nosrat found herself in a low. She was diagnosed with clinical depression, and said the joy she once found with cooking, stopped being attainable. But it was cooking for community, and for her found family, that brought her back. Nosrat's new book focuses on bringing families of all types to the table, and building community through great food. Nosrat recently joined us to talk about her book, and what's inspiring her today.

- Key Change: Samin Nosrat on Ani DiFranco
My guest today is my friend Samin Nosrat, the author of the bestselling, award-winning cookbook Salt Fat Acid Heat , and the host and executive producer of the hit Netflix show that's based on it. Her second cookbook comes out this fall, and it's called Good Things: Recipes and Rituals to Share With People You Love . Back in March 2020, Samin and I started a podcast together called Home Cooking , where we answered people's anxious questions about cooking in the time of the pandemic and lockdown. And we're bringing that podcast back later this year. Samin is one of my closest friends. We've been there for each other for all of the most important moments of our lives over the years that we've known each other. But with a total lack of consideration to our friendship, it turns out Samin’s had important moments in her life from before we met. But we're going to make up for lost time, and she's going to talk to me about one of them today. For more, visit songexploder.net/keychange .

- Samin Nosrat & Flynn McGarry
As we approach our 500th episode, we are bringing back two memorable episodes from 2018, our first year of the podcast. Samin Nosrat is a chef and the author of the legendary cookbook Salt Fat Acid Heat . This episode was our very first, and it was recorded at Books Are Magic in Brooklyn on July 12, 2018. We talked to Samin about “too-mami” (cooking with too much umami), angry letters, and the differences between brands of kosher salt—that is, not all kosher salt is the same. Also on the show is a great conversation with Flynn McGarry . He’s the chef-owner of Gem Wine and Gem Home in New York City. In this episode, we discuss his time working at Los Angeles restaurant Alma at age 13, while being homeschooled, and his famous pop-ups even earlier in his career. The journey is all documented in the great film Chef Flynn , and we get into Flynn’s many travels and eventual business opening in NYC—the most competitive and cutthroat restaurant city in America.

- Why Samin Nosrat Is Now ‘Fully YOLO’
The chef Samin Nosrat lives by the idea that food is love. Her Netflix series, “ Salt, Fat, Acid, Heat, ” and the James Beard Award-winning cookbook that inspired it, were about using food to build community and forge connections. Since then, all of her creative projects and collaborations have focused on inspiring people to cook, and eat, with their friends and loved ones. After the recent loss of her father, Samin has gained an even deeper understanding of what it means to savor a meal — or even an hour — with loved ones. This week, she reads an essay about exactly that: “ You May Want to Marry My Husband ” by Amy Krouse Rosenthal. It’s one of the most-read Modern Love essays ever.

- Samin Nosrat’s California Love
On this, the 100th episode of the California Now Podcast, host Soterios Johnson interviews James Beard Award–winning author, chef, and Netflix star Samin Nosrat. The San Diego native and Oakland resident shares how she began her culinary career in Alice Water’s kitchen at Chez Panisse: “ I started, and I was pretty much immediately just enchanted by this place,” Nosrat recalls. “I'd never worked anywhere like that, where everybody cared so much and was just such a perfectionist.” It was there that she came up with the idea for her New York Times bestselling cookbook Salt, Fat, Acid, Heat , which would later become a hit Netflix series. “ I saw that it was really these four elements, salt, fat, acid, and heat, that were kind of the points on the compass. And I even went up to one of the chefs at one point , and I said, ‘I think I understand now.’” Throughout the interview, Nosrat highlights recipes from her cookbook, names some of her go-to East Bay eateries, and celebrates the state's vibrant food culture, from local farmers' markets to ethnically diverse restaurants to her favorite spot for a bean-and-cheese burrito. Finally, Nosrat takes the California Questionnaire, offering insights into her culinary and travel favorites across the Golden State.
