Hello, and welcome to another episode of the podcast. Today is part 2 of Shine Up Your Recipes. I started last week with questions about development, writing, testing, confidence about your recipes being yours and not just repeats, and the number of recipes to include in a book or cookbook submission. Today, I will answer more questions about organizing recipes, photos, and anecdotes, gathering recipes and deciding on a theme for a book, developing a practice for recipe development and writing, and discussing portion sizes.

Hello, and welcome to another episode of the podcast.

Hello, and welcome to another episode of the podcast. Today, I have an interview with Georgina Hayden. Much to my excitement, this is not Georgina’s first time on the podcast. We had Georgina on the show back in Episode 222 for her book Nistisima, and this past Lent, I used Georgina’s book as an example of how people eat during Lent in the Orthodox Church during Episode 284. Today, Georgina is here again, and I have the pleasure of talking to her about her newest book, Greekish. Georgina grew up above her grandparent's Greek-Cypriot taverna in London. She is a food writer and has published multiple cookbooks including Stirring Slowly, Taverna, and the book I mentioned previously Nistisima. Georgina lives in London with her family but is strongly tied to her Greek-Cypriot roots through travel back to the region and food and cooking. During our time together, we discussed common myths about Greek food, how to cook Greekish dishes with maximum results and low effort, and key ingredients you can stock in your pantry to make preparing recipes in the book a breeze.
