Own the Morning: Food52’s Amanda Hesser – Morning Brew

In this weeks edition of Own the Morning, we talk to food impresario Amanda Hesser. Chances are if youve eaten something delicious in the last decade, at least some of it is thanks to Amanda. Quick bio:

We slid into Amandas DMs to ask her about the food media industry, how she owns the morning, and most importantly, her favorite fast food burgers.

3 things you do in the morning that are essential to starting your day off right.

1) Make our bed 2) drink a large glass of room temperature water 3) put on perfume (Rose Of No Man's Land by Byredo).

1 thing you do in the morning that other people definitely dont do.

This is embarrassing for a food person to admit and I appreciate you not judging, but my husband makes cold brew and I heat it in the microwave.

1 thing about your industry no one outside of it understands.

How much work goes into developing and photographing a recipe.

1 thing you are snobby about.

I'm particular about kitchen countertopshow much stuff is on them, how it's arranged. Also particular about pantries, and how food is stored and organized. Your kitchen and pantry should feel calming and welcoming, not like a grocery store exploded in it.

Rank these: Five Guys, In-N-Out, Shake Shack

Shake Shack, In-N-Out, then Five Guys off in the distance.
