It's no question at this point that cooking is a form of art. But can a recipe communicate an idea in the same way a song, a story, a painting can? Do you feel moved by a really good bite in the same way that you’re moved by a beautiful chord? Or are these things tapping into different, incomparable aspects of our humanity? In the second issue of the Talkhouse Reader — the new print supplement to Talkhouse's digital editorial and podcast — we explore these questions (and more!) with artists and chefs themselves. The 32-page zine features essays, conversations, and recipes by Colman Domingo, chef Matty Matheson, Sheer Mag's Tina Halladay, Vicky Krieps, Squirrel Flower, The Blessed Madonna, Sam Evian, Jeff Baena, cookbook author Thalia Ho, and many more.
