Beloved baker David Lebovitz is back on the pod! David is a pastry chef, cookbook author, and one of the OG food bloggers whose recipes and tales of Parisian life have inspired home bakers around the world. The newly revised edition of his bestselling book, “Ready for Dessert: My Best Recipes,” features more than 170 irresistible cakes, cookies, and pastries recipes, and he joins host Jessie Sheehan to talk about it.
David also shares about the first chocolate soufflé he ever baked (in his mom’s Pyrex measuring cup), and he weighs in on the age-old debate of lemon versus chocolate dessert people. David also walks Jessie through his playful PB&J spin on a classic Linzertorte.
