![]() ![]() I learned how food is a community builder through this. I’d make recipes from the shows I was watching, and that was the first taste I got for hospitality and that warm feeling of welcoming people in to share a meal. I started having friends over for dinner in high school. ![]() I’m of the Food Network generation - I would come from school every day and watch Ina and Giada, and I was completely mesmerized. We talked with Jake about what being “Jew-ish” means to him, and the power of shared rituals in community building - all while he made a savory kugel from his upcoming cookbook. He got his start as a cook in the restaurant world before moving into food media, with stints leading recipe testing at Saveur magazine’s test kitchen, writing for Time Out New York, and as the editorial and test-kitchen director of feedfeed. Jake Cohen is a self-described "nice Jewish boy" who loves food. The Great Ones is a celebration of humans we admire - and an exploration of why they cook, not just how. ![]()
