Episode 284: Lenten Fasting Foods or Nistisima with Georgina Hayden

Hello, and welcome to another episode of the podcast. Since we're now in the season of Lent, I'm excited to replay this interview with Georgina Hayden. Georgina is a cook, food writer and stylist, and the author of Nistisima: The Secret to Delicious Vegan Cooking from the Mediterranean. Nistisima, filled with stories, tips, trips, and photography, explores plant-based eating and fasting from animal products during Lent in the Orthodox religion. Listen in as Georgie, and I discuss her third book, pushing the boundaries of food and cooking with a discussion of religious practices, her love and focus on Greek and Cypriot food, and how she learned to write recipes and become a part of Jamie Oliver's team.
