And on Milk Street Radio you can always find the unexpected: the comedian who ranks apples using an elaborate 100-point system, the scientists who study if vegetables have souls, and the journalist who reveals the world’s 10 biggest food lies. We also answer our listeners’ cooking questions, find out how to make the perfect cup of coffee, and share how to eat your way through Italy.","last_synced_at":null,"page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/christopher-kimball-s-milk-street-radio-960955"},"episode":{"title":"The Cook Who Tested Everything: Ella Quittner is Obsessed with the Best","slug":"the-cook-who-tested-everything-ella-quittner-is-obsessed-with-the-best","published_at":"2026-02-20T08:30:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/christopher-kimball-s-milk-street-radio-960955/the-cook-who-tested-everything-ella-quittner-is-obsessed-with-the-best","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/christopher-kimball-s-milk-street-radio-960955","url":"https://play.prx.org/listen?ge=prx_9135_46b654bb-9d48-4bed-b66c-fe232d015ffc&uf=https%3A%2F%2Fpublicfeeds.net%2Ff%2F9135%2Ffeed-rss.xml","audio_url":"https://www.podtrac.com/pts/redirect.mp3/tracking.swap.fm/track/sblTq32fyWAjsHzze2LG/dovetail.prxu.org/9135/46b654bb-9d48-4bed-b66c-fe232d015ffc/MSR1004_Podcast.mp3","summary":"Ella Quittner has spent years meticulously testing recipes for the flakiest biscuits, crispiest bacon, perfectly poached eggs, most tender yellow cake, and more.
