Cooked

Hosted by

We end this week's show with a hard sell for making food at home from a cheese nun, a BBQ pit-master and some Aboriginal goanna hunters. They're all featured in the new Netflix documentary series Cooked, which is directed by Alex Gibney and is based on Michael Pollan's book of the same name.

Pollan, who teaches at UC-Berkeley's journalism school and writes about science, farming and food production, joins Good Food to talk about bringing the major themes from his book — fire, water, air and earth — to the screen.

Cooked premiered on Netflix on February 19. Watch a trailer from the documentary series.
