Owen Han has mastered the art of the sandwich and made millions of mouths water along the way. Known for his ASMR-style sandwich videos and crave-worthy culinary content, the chef and TikTok creator now brings his signature flair to STACKED: The Art of the Perfect Sandwich, his debut cookbook.
In this episode, Owen joins Scent World host Marianne Mychaskiw to talk about scent, flavor, and the memories baked into every bite. From his Chinese-Italian upbringing to the incense that reminds him of his mom, Owen shares how smell, identity, and nostalgia all come together in the kitchen. Plus, a late-night sandwich ASMR challenge, his secret weapon ingredients, and the $500 fantasy sandwich he'd create for Erewhon.
Tune in for:
• The childhood scent that still defines his cooking
• What makes the perfect sandwich (and do hot dogs make the cut?)
• Why incense is part of his daily ritual
• His take on food icons, from Martha to Guy to Gordon
• The unexpected dessert sandwich that converted him to sweets
