  • Making Ghee with Padma Kumar
    Oct 11 2025

    I used to fail at making ghee every single time, until Padma taught me how! A couple of months ago, Padma Kumar from My Good Food World joined me to talk about her Mung Bean Soup recipe. During that chat, I admitted that I’d always failed at making ghee. So I invited her back, and in this glorious episode, Padma walks me through her exact method. She explains how to make this golden elixir, why it matters, and she shares plenty of helpful tips along the way.

    In this episode, I also talk about the a fun challenge that I have for you on COOKtheSTORY.com right now. It's the Turkey Brine #WEMadeItChallenge where you can test out my turkey brine recipe on some chicken breasts to see if you want to use it for your Thanksgiving turkey. If you give the turkey brine a try, you can enter to win one of two $50 Amazon gift cards. Details at https://COOKtheSTORY.com/challenge.

    Follow Padma on Instagram here: @mygoodfoodworld
