Episode 4: Wine and Whines
Anne talks with Natalie MacLean, wine expert and author of Red, White, and Drunk All Over, about pairing food and wine. David and Anne discuss organic beverages, and our sound engineer, Robbin Gheesling, who is a sommelier in train, tells us her favorite sparkling wine choices.

Erin Ergenbright, from Leite's Culinaria, reflects on the idiosyncrasies and the pleasures of a "Table for One," an essay that appeared in Alone in the Kitchen with an Eggplant

Episode 3: Kitchen Takes and Tales
Nancy Leson, restaurant critic for the Seattle Times, discusses her experiences with her nemesis — her freezer — in her essay "Knee-Deep in Her Deep Freeze."

Anne Bramley talks with Patrik Rosen from IKEA about the joys and travails of building your own modern kitchen. And David looks at three "small" books: Backstage with Julia: My Years with Julia Child by Nancy Verde Barr, Field Guide to Seafood: How to Identify, Select, and Prepare Virtually Every Fish and Shellfish at the Market by Aliza Green, and Basics: The Foundations of Modern Cooking by Filip Verheyden and Tony Le Duc.

Episode 2: Silver Palates All Around
Anne Bramley chats with authors Julee Rosso and Sheila Lukins about their Silver Palate Cookbook: 25th Anniversary Edition, which Linda has chosen as our book du moment. Related recipes: Pasta Primavera Gregory, Seafood Salad with a Creamy Tarragon-Mustard Dressing, Carrot Cake, and Blackberry Mousse.

And for the essay, I consider another kind of palate: my own. Listen as I discuss the bittersweet — and I do mean bittersweet — achievements of being a supertaster in my story "Tales of a Super Taster."

Episode 1: Jacques Pépin and New England Grillers
Anne Bramley talks with Jacques Pépin about his new book, Chez Jacques: Traditions and Rituals of a Cook, finds out why he loves to paint, and discovers his dream vacation — among other things. Related recipes: Oysters Rockefeller, Steamed Lobster with Herb Sauce, Lobster Bisque, Corn, and Fingerling Potatoes, and Caramels.

Food writer, cookbook author, and Leite's Culinaria contributor Elissa Altman gets philosophical about a species unto itself: New England grillers, those stalwart few who simply haven't learned that there's such a thing as a grilling season.
