Previously, Jessica wrote Corn (Short Stack), and co-authored six cookbooks, including Home Grown: Cooking From My New England Roots with Matt Jennings, Vietnamese Home Food with Charles Phan, and Tartine Book 3 with Tartine owner Chad Robertson.

“There is so much power and opportunity in food and cooking for others… and so many interesting ways to like use that skill and kind of harness that.”

We sat down with Jessica at San Francisco's The Civic Kitchen cooking school to talk about the stories behind Repertoire.

Jessica is the author of Repertoire: All the Recipes You Need, and co-author of six other cookbooks.
