Melissa Clark is one of the most prolific recipe developers around, with dozens of cookbooks to her name and a weekly cooking column in The New York Times. She joins host Jessie Sheehan to demystify the recipe development process and share what goes into both creating unique recipes and collaborating with chefs to translate their recipes for home cooks. Melissa also explains why she swears by weighing ingredients, how sugar is about sweetness and structure, the importance of being transparent about your process, whether vanilla extract adds any flavor, and why wisdom and confidence are key. In the second half of the show, Melissa and Jessie do a deep dive into the chocolate coconut cake recipe from Melissa’s most recent book, Dinner In One: Exceptional & Easy One-Pan Meals.
