We'll let you know. We're veteran cookbook authors Bruce Weinstein & Mark Scarbrough, authors of over three dozen cookbooks, including THE ESSENTIAL AIR FRYER COOKBOOK, with every recipe sized for every size of machine. You can find it here.

Besides our discussion of the current food shortages, we've got a one-minute cooking tip about making steak fries. We've got a great interview with the sensational Lukas Volger, author of SNACKS FOR DINNER. And we tell you what's making us happy in food this week.
