Andy Baraghani on Cooking, Toxic Relationships, Al Pacino, and Persian Culture

Chef, food writer, New York Times bestselling author, and James Beard Award winner Andy Baraghani joins me for a heartfelt conversation about the richness of Persian culture and what he’s been navigating emotionally during a difficult moment for the Iranian community. We also get into why one toxic relationship might be more of a lesson than a mistake, the importance of treating yourself with compassion, his mission to inspire home cooks, and he settles the ultimate kitchen question: can you re-heat rice?
