Hi, Boise and Girls are on fire at up.

Hi, Bombs'Bom is the number one female-focused food podcast in... you're listening to Radio Cherry Bomb, and I'm your host, Carrie Diamond.

Radio Cherry Bomb is the number one female-focused food podcast in the country.

Each week, we talk to the most inspiring women in and around the world of food.

Let's thank our sponsor, Hansenbrook Farm Organic Pasture Raised Eggs.

Hansenbrook Farm's secret to making rich, flavorful eggs is simple. The most possible space, the best possible feed, and lots of love. It's a healthy

and humane recipe that makes your omelets, cakes, custards, and everything in between taste better.

For more on Hansenbrook Farm and where to find their eggs, visit Hansenbrookfarm.com.

Did you know Cherrybaum has an online boutique? If you're in need of some gift ideas for anyone

in the bomb squad, head over to cherrybom.com. We've got our signature chef shirts, the Cherrybaum cookbook, back issues, our co-lab apron with

Headley and Bennett, and more. That's cherrybomb.com. Let's talk about today's show. Yasmin Khan,

the human rights activist turned food and travel writer, stopped by Cherrybaum headquarters recently for a chat.

Her new book was just published in the U.S. after much acclaim in the UK. It's called Zaytune,

recipes from the Palestinian kitchen, and it's as thought-provoking as her first book,

Saffron Tales, recipes from the Persian kitchen. If you share Yasmin's belief that food is a vehicle for understanding each other,

you'll appreciate Zaytune and the stories that Yasmin tells

as she explores the cuisines of the various regions.

Before we get to my interview with Yasmin, we have a word from Hansenbrook Farm,

Organic Pasture Raised Eggs. Hansenbrook Farm, organic, pasture-raised eggs.

Hansenbrook Farm believes that organic and pastured is the way to go when it comes to eggs.

Pasture-raised means better lives for hens, better lives for small farmers, and better eggs for you.

It's also better for chefs who depend on rich, flavorful eggs.
