Molly Baz stops by — and Hetty McKinnon joins us for dinner!
Hetty is our summer Cookbook Club author, and we're cooking together (virtually) next week—join us! Plus, tune in for our recent chats with Molly Baz, Claire Saffitz, and more.
Hi there cookbook lovers,
Somehow we’re already partway through the summer, and we’re relishing the summer produce we’ve been lucky to find. And we’re thrilled to be bringing you all-new episodes (see below) and to re-launch our Cookbook Club.
On that front, our Cookbook Club is going seasonal! This summer, we’re cooking along with Salt + Spine friend Hetty McKinnon — and Hetty is joining us for a Virtual Dinner Party next Wednesday, July 23!
Hetty joins the Salt + Spine Cookbook Club as our featured author for Summer 2021. We’re cooking through her fourth cookbook—To Asia, With Love—and invite you to cook along with us.
The Salt & Spine Cookbook Club is like a ‘regular’ book club…but with a very special twist. Each season we focus on one author's work—reading, cooking and connecting about it on social media.
The bonus: we get together live with the author for a Dinner Party, sponsored by HARDCOVER COOK, the subscription box and ingredient shop for cookbook lovers. Reserve your seat at our Virutal Dinner Party with Hetty McKinnon on July 23 right here!
Next Wednesday, we’ll be making Pad Thai Salad with Hetty! Cook along if you’d like or just join for the great conversation.

"I just want people to know that cooking can be fun and there's a little bit of work you have to do on the front end to get yourself nice and equipped. And that's what this book is going to help you with. But then it's going to be really fucking fun and it's not going to be a chore anymore."

Claire Saffitz believes everyone is a 'Dessert Person,' and her first cookbook will prove it
June 29 | Episode 108 | 53:18
"Dessert Person is a really, wholehearted embrace of baking and eating and sweets and enjoying dessert and enjoying food and not applying a kind of morality to dessert... that you have to earn it. Or that you're being bad or sinful when you eat dessert."
