Bagel Wars, Our One-Minute Cooking Tip, An Interview With Author Craig Fear, Vegan Chocolate Chip Cookies & More!

Bagels are battlefields. People go to war over the right sort of bagel. We're talking about bagels as well as seafood with author Craig Fear.

We're veteran cookbook authors Bruce Weinstein & Mark Scarbrough. We've got over three dozen cookbooks to our names. And we've developed over 12,000 original recipes in our joint career. How's that for marriage?

In this episode, we're talking about bagels and the wars they cause. We've got a one-minute cooking tip for crystallized honey. Bruce interviews Craig Fear, author of NEW ENGLAND SOUPS FROM THE SEA. And we'll let you know what's making us happy in food this week.
