Show 352, December 21, 2019: Joy of Cooking’s 9th Edition Authors, John Becker & Megan Scott Part One

John Becker and Megan Scott of the Joy of Cooking“For a new generation of cooks, comes a brand-new edition of America’s most enduring and trusted cookbook. Joy of Cooking, the timeless and essential kitchen “bible” that home cooks have relied on for nearly 90 years, has now been updated and revised by the next generation of Joy family home cooks—Irma Rombauer’s great-grandson John Becker and his wife Megan Scott.”

“It is the first edition of Joy of Cooking to be released since the must-have kitchen manual’s bestselling 75th anniversary edition (2006), and the first to be fully revised by the Rombauer-Becker family since the cookbook’s bestselling 1975 edition, edited by Irma’s daughter Marion Rombauer Becker.”

“John Becker and Megan Scott have devoted the past nine years toward this classic cookbook’s revision, offering an edition with 600 all new recipes, that brims with food history and science, making Joy of Cooking as rich of a reading experience as a culinary one. It is the first edition of Joy of Cooking to also be available as an eBook.”

John Becker and Megan Scott take a brief respite from their busy book tour to chat with us.
