518: The Secret Life of Roald Dahl and The Chocolate Factory

America's Test Kitchen Radio | Jun 10, 2016

This week from the Test Kitchen, we celebrate the life and work of Roald Dahl on the centenary of his birth. We speak with his wife Felicity Dahl who shares her memories of Roald, the foodie, and discusses the sense of wonder he produced with the magical candy creations he wrote about, from the Everlasting Gobstoppers to the Three-Course Dinner Chewing Gum. We’ll taste sherry vinegar, and we’ll find out what's hot and what's not in the world of kitchen gadgets. Then we’ll head into the Test Kitchen to learn how to make the best Korean Rice Bowl. And of course, we’ll be taking your calls to answer all of your cooking questions.
