J. Kenji López-Alt Applies His Scientific Method to Seattle’s Food Scene.

Food writer Helen Rosner once said she finds optimal cooking techniques by simply googling the topic “plus the word ‘Kenji.’”

Me too, Helen. Me, too. Which reminds me, we need to buy a copy of his kids' book for our nephew.

The making of 3-2-1 Contact. Man, I loved this show back in the day. I was around for its first incarnation, so when things were shaken up a bit later on and I managed to catch episodes they were Just Not Right. XD Fun fact: my dad pre-emptively banned me from trying to play a record using a cactus needle like Lisa (I think it was) did in one episode, as he didn't want me to scratch up our records. (I think I may have done it one day when he was not at home. Or maybe I just thought really hard about doing it.)

I loved that show too! Everyone else apparently saw some slightly later show I never watched, but 3-2-1 was formative for me. (Square One, that was it. I just didn't click with it.) Wordsmith, which taught me etymology, was also super formative. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wordsmith_(TV_series)
