Side quests. A term from gaming but now a part of cultural moment. Everyone has a side quest, a way to find and fulfill their passions, even as they do whatever they do to pay the bills.
We're Bruce Weinstein & Mark Scarbrough, veteran cookbook authors of over three dozen cookbooks. We've each found this career as a side quest that became our main quest.
We've also got a one-minute cooking tip. And we'll tell you what's making us happy in food this week!
Here are the segments for this episode of COOKING WITH BRUCE & MARK:
[01:10] Our one-minute cooking tip: Microwave lemons and limes for a few seconds before juicing them.
[02:46] Side quests. What are they? Why are they important? How has our career developed out of our side quests? And what are our current side quests?
[25:02] What’s making us happy in food this week? Dried mung bean noodles for Bruce and vegan mozzarella from Three Girls Vegan Creamery in Guilford, Connecticut for Mark.
