As someone who spends a great deal of time attempting viral TikTok recipes, trying new restaurants, and visiting places known for their photographic menu and decor, I consider myself a foodie through and through. However, the cost of dining out can add up pretty quickly, especially if you live in a big city, where ordering takeout is its own sport. I decided to make cooking at home more often one of my goals of 2022, which led me to cooking podcasts. Whether it be episodes on recipe ideas, pantry staples, food trivia, or how to hold and use a knife properly, I've found cooking podcasts to be extremely helpful, and I think you will, too.

Plus, some of these are fun as cooking background noise or if you're interested in learning more about the food industry from the experts themselves.
