• Nigella Lawson Talks Solitude, Imperfect Housekeeping, Squishy White Bread, and Listening to Your Food

  Like many of us, Nigella Lawson has spent the last 13 months hunkered at home, in an endless cycle of cooking, eating, washing up (reluctantly), and doing it all again just hours later. Unlike the rest of us, she's adapted her practices into a glorious cookbook—called Cook, Eat, Repeat—that celebrates and elevates this cycle into something contemplative and pleasurable. The renowned author and TV star joined Communal Table for an intimate conversation about isolation, grief, keeping house, re-entering society, the nature of gathering, and the pleasures of a long and non-photogenic braise.

  We're living in a golden age of Preeti Mistry and the world is so much more delicious for it.

• Sam Fore Talks Feeding Restaurant Workers in Need, Therapy, and Tomato Pie

  When chef Sam Fore sees something she can fix, she jumps in to help. As the restaurant industry was devastated by COVID-19, she joined The LEE Initiative to help make sure that workers were being fed—and help create a system where the whole community could benefit in the long term. That's just who she is as a person, but it wasn't until recently that she offered that kind of care to herself, in the form of starting therapy. In part two of this two-part conversation, Fore talks about the nitty-gritty of building sustainable relationships between restaurants and farms, how stigma gets in the way of mental healthcare (especially in the South Asian community), and what it means to have your food on the cover of a magazine.  Listen to Part One https://www.foodandwine.com/fwpro/communal-table-podcast-sam-fore Tuk Tuk Sri Lankan Bites http://www.tuktuklex.com/ Follow Sam on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/tuktuklex/ The LEE Initiative https://www.leeinitiative.org/ Sam on Medium https://heated.medium.com/no-appetit-tuktuk-a3e708cb7427 Roasted Tomato Curry Pie https://www.foodandwine.com/recipes/roasted-curry-tomato-pie This Spicy Mango Pork Noodle Dinner Comes Together in Just One Skillet https://www.foodandwine.com/fwcooks/spicy-mango-pork-noodles-samantha-fore These Tempered Curry-Ginger Sweet Potatoes Are Perfect for Fall https://www.foodandwine.com/cooking-techniques/fw-cooks-samantha-fore-tempered-curry-ginger-sweet-potatoes Learn more about your ad choices.

• Sam Fore Will Not Stay Silent, and That's a Very Good Thing

  When it comes to calling out cruddy behavior, chef Sam Fore has never been afraid to speak her mind. Growing up as a first-generation Sri Lankan American in North Carolina, she had a supportive community (and a mom who always warned her about how her mouth would get her in trouble—not that she listened) but outside of it, she began to question why the rules and standards were different for her than for her white peers. Fore's sense of justice and fearlessness has only strengthened over the years, and she joined Communal Table for a lively and frank discussion about growing up brown in the South, why it's important to question your preconceived notions, accidentally becoming a chef, and standing up for vulnerable people.
