She’s My Cherry Pie is taking a short summer break, but we’ve got something sweet (and savory) for you until we’re back! It’s host Jessie Sheehan’s 2022 interview with recipe developer, blogger, and James Beard-award winning author Kristina Cho. The Ohio native shares how eating her grandfather’s almond cookies as a kid inspired her love for food, recipes, and the intricacies of Chinese baked goods.
In 2017, while working as an architect, Kristina launched her blog Eat Cho Food as a creative outlet, but soon enough blogging and baking became her full-time career. Her debut cookbook, “Mooncakes and Milk Bread,” is the first to focus exclusively on the recipes and culture of Chinese baking. Kristina and Jessie talk through the techniques, tools, and ingredients for making milk bread, and how Kristina tweaks her recipe for hamburger buns, sweet-and-salty hot dog buns, and more.
