Exploring the Jewish Kitchens of Mexico, Food on Social Media & Egg Salad with Eitan Bernath
Listen now
Description
On this episode of Taste Buds with Deb, host Debra Eckerling speaks with chef, entertainer, and cookbook author Eitan Bernath. Bernath, 22, has been working in food entertainment for about ten years.    “I didn't really fit in, when I was younger, with the little league or sports, but I really loved food,” Bernath says. “My mom encouraged me [to] try cooking … and I really just fell in love with being in the kitchen.” When he was 11, Bernath randomly auditioned for an episode of the Food Network’s “Chopped;” the episode aired when he was 12. The rest is social media history,   In his new digital series, “Eitan Explores: Mexico City,” Bernath dives into the culinary joys, along with the history from the Jewish kitchens of Mexico City. The seven two-minute episodes, which just premiered in May, explore a melting pot of culture and people deeply connected to the spirit of their country as well as their ancestral roots.   Bernath talks about journeys in food, cooking, and social media, as well as the new series. He also shares some cooking tips and his love of egg salad. Get Bernath’s egg salad recipe at JewishJournal.com/podcasts.
