I'm honored to have Jason Licker on the podcast today for OF EARTH Ep.8. Jason is a James Beard-nominated pastry chef. I wanted to share what conversations are like between chefs who really love their craft, who love to travel and experience culture and then apply that to their own life and their own work. Don’t miss Jason Licker’s latest cookbook, ‘Baking With Licker: Home Baking With Asian Accents.’

“I think I started out just like anybody else having zero clues what the hell you're doing. And I slid into my niche which happens to be Asian ingredients. I worked in Manhattan, Miami, then made the jump and I ended up working in Shanghai. Ni Hao. What I found most through my adventures is why like Asian ingredients is because they can really balance your palate. I lived in Asia for about 15 years and I found that the more I lived in Asia, the crazier things were happening.”
