Trailer - Welcome to Forklore

Forklore is equal parts hunger-inducing cooking show and thought-provoking interview that entrenches you in the sounds of the kitchen while exploring the rich stories behind those sizzles. Host Shaun Chavis is a James Beard Award-winning cookbook editor and food writer, and the founder of Saltshaker Marketing &amp; Media. Every other week, kitchen warriors tune into Forklore to hear chefs share the untold stories behind their forthcoming cookbooks while they make a recipe from the cookbook live on the show. Each episode includes a giveaway of the cookbook featured on that episode. New episode every other Sunday.

Shaun’s depth of expertise comes out in the soothing and confident tone in her voice. And her thoughtful questions. I’ve enjoyed listening to this new podcast and have added it to my regular food podcast repertoire. I always hear something that I hadn’t heard before from the guests Shaun interviews, and it sticks with me.

A Great Addition to Your Food Podcast Repertoire

I&#39;m a professional chef and even though I&#39;m around food all day, this podcast is a new favorite. Shaun&#39;s voice is really easy to listen to. I like the mix of hearing the cooking and the stories about why the authors wrote their cookbooks. Doing that really connects the food to what the chef is trying to say. Only thing is that I wish this were a weekly podcast.
