Nigella Lawson

It's our first episode of Food with Mark Bittman, and today I'm joined by the fabulous Nigella Lawson. She talks about cooking during the pandemic, food snobbery, and the pleasures of using less popular ingredients from rhubarb to celeriac. We bond over our equally terrible knife skills and Nigella takes issue the term "guilty pleasure." Team Bittman Project answers your questions from the perfect number of pizza toppings to a dad doesn't know what to feed his two vegetarian daughters. I also share my recipes for asparagus and leek soup and a simple and declines herb omelette.
