ROTD Weekend: Emily Paster and The Chocolate Chip Controversy
This week I'm reprising a conversation I had with food writer and cookbook Emily Paster about her take on actually using chocolate chips (instead of hand-chopped chocolate) in chocolate chip cookies. This conversation is inspired by her article in Taste Magazine, Putting the Chips Back in Chocolate Chip Cookies, in which she makes the argument for not over-complicating cooking and baking. We discuss how it can be discouraging to criticize people for not cooking or baking in a certain way, and what we should be doing is celebrating the short cuts that modern technology has provided.
