SVOD HIGHLIGHT:

What’s good in subscription video on demand. Samin Nosrat’s 2017 book Salt, Fat, Acid, Heat: Mastering the Elements of Good Cooking was an affirmation and a manual for those of us who don’t necessarily want to follow step-by-step recipes all the time, but to simply understand how to cook food. Its incarnation as a Netflix series, Salt, Fat, Acid, Heat, adds a travel element, but Nosrat keeps it moored in the principles of her book. You’ll never guess how much there is to say about salt in Japan.
