Nowhere in the 4 30-minute- long episodes does Nosrat say that she is NETFLIX SCREENCAP FROM trying to revolutionize the food world, or even the food TV world. But you wouldn’t know that by reading the reviews of her show. In Wired, Jason Parham says that the show “spurn[s] the pallid and passé images of [food] shows past, turning away from white domesticity to a broader vision of food acceptance,” while a headline from Eater boldly calls it “Marxist Fantasy Porn.” Why such political visions of a show that, at its core, is supposed to be just a “how to cook” show? Making pesto in Liguria, Italy Maybe it’s because each episode takes place in a different country, and people of constant learning in the kitchen over vastly different cultures, economic classes and culinary school expertise or expensive genders are granted respect and time in the kitchen gadgetry.
