138: The Amazing World of James Beard

America's Test Kitchen Radio | Apr 22, 2014
This time on America’s Test Kitchen, we investigate the world of James Beard, a man who helped define American cooking and yet is hardly known at all today. We’ll find out what’s hot and what’s not in the world of kitchen gadgets, and we’ll be tasting wine with expert Stephen Meuse. Then we’ll head into the test kitchen to learn how to make Pepper-Crusted Beef Tenderloin. And of course, we’ll be taking your calls to answer all of your cooking questions.
