An Evening with Samin Nosrat

Good Things, An Evening with Samin Nosrat

Spend an uplifting evening with Samin Nosrat as she discusses her new book, Good Things. Samin will share stories around the inspiration for the cookbook, her development and selection of the recipes, and the culinary rituals she shares with close friends. In an evening about creativity and connection, Samin will remind us how cooking can not only nourish our bodies but also satiate our desire for kinship and community.

In 2017, chef and writer Samin Nosrat shared her simple but revolutionary cooking philosophy with us in Salt, Fat, Acid, Heat. She then adapted the lessons of the #1 New York Times Bestseller into a beloved limited series of the same name for Netflix. And during the pandemic, she launched the Home Cooking podcast with Hrishikesh Hirway, sharing both her depth of knowledge and her joy for cooking with fans across the world. Over the years, Samin has become a trusted kitchen companion to millions of fans through her warm and endearing and deeply human approach to cooking, its processes, and its pleasures.

On September 16, 2025, Random House will publish Samin's eagerly awaited follow-up to Salt, Fat, Acid, Heat, a cookbook titled Good Things: Recipes and Rituals to Share with the People You Love. Good Things offers more than 125 of her favorite recipes – simply put, the things she most loves to cook for herself and her friends – and infuses them with her trademark blend of warmth, creativity, and precision.

About Hrishikesh Hirway
Hrishi and Samin first met on the eve of the publication of Salt Fat Acid Heat in 2017. Since then, they have bonded over their shared love of word play, cookies, and  fluffy small dogs. In 2020, they launched Home Cooking, a podcast aimed to keep folks company while stuck at home during the COVID-19 lockdown. Though the pandemic has largely subsided, their mutual torture of one another will continue (much to the delight of their audience) with a new 8-episode season later this year.
