Joel Gamoran's Scrappy Cooking: Transforming Kitchen Waste into Culinary Gold

How about we don't try and make food perfect because it's not perfect, just like life's not perfect if you're recycling.
Ever thought your kitchen scraps could be culinary treasures? Joel Gamoran, National Chef for Sur La Table and host of A+E's 'Scraps', certainly thinks so. In this episode of Unwasted: The Podcast, Joel shares his journey from a shy public speaker to a charismatic chef on a mission to make cooking more sustainable and less wasteful.
His story is filled with surprising twists, like how Katie Couric became a fan and a catalyst for his show and book, and the unforgettable tale of Eduardo Garcia, the 'Bionic Chef', who overcame a life-changing accident. Joel's passion for scrappy cooking shines through as he reveals practical tips that turn everyday kitchen waste into delicious dishes. Imagine using onion peels for stock or grating broccoli stems for fritters—simple changes that can make a big difference.
This episode is packed with actionable advice and heartwarming stories that will inspire you to rethink how you use food. Tune in to learn how to transform your kitchen habits and join Joel on his mission to reduce food waste, one scrappy meal at a time.
