A Tour of Samin Nosrat's Home and Studio Kitchens in Oakland
"The Chez Panisse-trained chef and food writer-her latest cookbook, Good Things, was released a couple months ago-lives in a small cottage in an urban compound of homes that share a courtyard (we featured the lovely communal setup in our 2022 book Remodelista: The Low-Impact Home). Her galley kitchen is tiny. There's no marble-topped island, no walk-in larder, no appliance garage, not even a full-sized refrigerator."
"Yet-it is in this humble, compact space, right next to the stairs, she where she creates delicious dish after delicious dish, often to feed loved ones. Her new book, subtitled "Recipes and Rituals to Share With People You Love," speaks to this core ethos: cooking can be an act of generosity, a gift of your time and care and attention. You don't need a Lacanche range to be a better cook or more engaged friend-just some well-designed, durable tools and a commitment to nourish your relationships."
Samin Nosrat lives in a small cottage within an urban compound and works in a compact galley kitchen with very limited built-in storage and no full-sized refrigerator. The kitchen centers on practicality and warmth, using custom solutions like a speedrack for half-sheet pans and a European-style dish rack to maximize space. Gardening includes shell beans for beauty and yield. The Good Things cookbook emphasizes cooking as generosity—preparing food as a gift of time, care, and attention—and promotes durable, well-designed tools and a design motto of beauty paired with utility over high-end appliances.
