Chef Yotam Ottolenghi and Mayukh Sen

Mark talks to Yotam Ottolenghi about veganism, the hardest vegetables to cook, and what the "real" hummus is; and to Mayukh Sen about the complicated legacy of Julia Child, the beauty and power of women in food, and what "success" for immigrants really looks like.
