Listen "Amanda Hesser: Food52"
Episode Synopsis
When Amanda Hesser was pursuing a profession after college, she decided to take the road less traveled and less certain by pursuing a love of traditional methods of cooking in kitchens scattered around Europe. As her passion for cooking and food continued, it started taking her out of the kitchen and into the keyboard which ultimately led to a dream career in food journalism for the New York Times. Landing a job with NYT might be the pinnacle of any career, but after a while Amanda felt pulled to something else. In 2008 she launched Food52, an online community that combines cooking, home goods, and a social network for food lovers. Today we’re going to hear more about Amanda’s story and how Athletic Brewing has partnered with Food52 to craft our new brew, Host & Toast, a Belgian-style White bursting with flavor. It features sweet Meyer lemon and notes of Grains of Paradise atop herbal and peppery undertones. Whether you enjoy it on its own or elevated in an NA cocktail, it’s an easy pick for effortless entertaining. Bring it home and let the hosting begin!You can purchase Host & Toast here.
