Cooking the Books, with Emily Gould: "Shake Shack" Burgers with Jami Attenberg
Cooking the Books, with Emily Gould, was shot and edited by Val Temple. In this episode: Jami Attenberg eats some dangerously undercooked meat to celebrate the publication this week of The Melting Season (buy it here!), the story of a married woman who leaves her life in Nebraska for Las Vegas.
(Previously: Obsolete Methods of Making Cookies and Popcorn with Anna Jane Grossman.)

Sorry, this was a bit of an "actually showing the cooking" fail … we'll do better with that in the glorious future.
Don't judge a burger by its bun.
Also: Hot wet and pink on the inside.
Related: I have a lisp similar to Emily's. Currently cutting myself until I stop (cutting that is).

Haha, right? I kind of think so too. Maybe that will be my signature signoff.
I'd suggest she stick to a rousing "cheerio!" at the end of episode #42: "Mastering the Fried Banana."
