Salt, Fat, Acid, Heat Season 1

Based on Samin Nosrat's best-selling, James Beard Award-winning book, Salt, Fat, Acid, Heat is the essential guide to the basic elements of good cooking. Directed by Caroline Suh, each episode of this four-part series joins our spirited guide Samin as she travels to home kitchens of Italy, the southern islands of Japan, the heat of the Yucatán and back to Berkeley's Chez Panisse - where she started her culinary career - to demystify and explore the central principles of what makes food delicious and how each of us can easily incorporate those elements into every dish.
