Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
The greates. Astronomer and author Carl Sagan once said, if
you wish to make an apple pie from scratch, you
must first invent the universe. My name is Michael Rohlman,
and I'm the host of a new podcast called From
Scratch on I Heart Radio. This isn't another podcast about
food and eating. From scratches a podcast about cooking. That

(00:21):
was my very first time meeting with the bacon. In
my twenty year career as a writer, I've written books
which aim to translate the chef's craft for the home cook.
Now I'm continuing that tradition here. Every episode of From
Scratch will explore cooking with one chef. So right now,
all I'm doing is start taking a piece of fish

(00:43):
and one expert who isn't a chef. What I was
missing was kind of a sensory memory of another place,
sensory memory off my personhood. Starting October sixt listen to
From Scratch on Apple Podcasts or the I Heart Radio app,
or wherever you get your podcasts.
