The following episode takes a broadview approach to looking at different writing materials that kitchen professionals use in their daily lives and how they are applicable to writing in higher education. By interviewing local family owner Deen Scott, we aim to learn about how the practicality and efficiency of food writing can help us become stronger written communicators. By contextualizing the use of written materials such as recipes, kitchen language, and marketing, host Audrey Case aims to provide a connection between food writing materials and writing in higher education. As well as, how they can be used in comparison in order to advance the literacy and skills of an individual.
