About Editors of Food52

The home and kitchen destination Food52.com was founded in 2009 by Amanda Hesser and Merrill Stubbs, two authors, editors, and opinionated home cooks who formerly worked for the New York Times. Since then, Food52 has created a suite of cookbooks, a cooking and home shop, a podcast, and a cooking hotline--and has won many a James Beard and IACP award doing it.
