This week, we're excited to welcome MARIA ZIZKA to Salt + Spine, the podcast on stories behind cookbooks.

Maria is the author of The Newlywed Table: A Cookbook to Start Your Life Together. She has worked on around a dozen other cookbooks, including Tartine All Day, Everything I Want to Eat, and This Is Camino.

In 2018, Forbes named her one of the 30 Most Influential People In Food & Drink Under 30.

In today’s show, we’re talking with Maria about what led her from thinking she would become a doctor to a culinary program in Italy — how she has approached co-writing cookbooks with chefs — and what books and authors have inspired her. Plus, we’re playing a Newlywed-themed game!

Also in today’s show, we’re chatting with the food-obsessed Chicago couple behind the popular Cooking The Books blog about the cookbooks they’ve been working through recently.

Bonus Salt + Spine Features:

Recipe: Braised Chicken Legs with Green Olives and Lime Gremolata

Recipe: Summer-on-a-Platter Salad

Buy the Book: Omnivore Books (signed!) | Amazon
