I'm food and culture writer Alicia Kennedy. In anticipation of my forthcoming book On Eating: The Making and Unmaking of My Appetites, I am talking to interesting folks about their own appetites and the origins of their food habits, pleasures, and beliefs.

For the fourth episode, I'm talking to Anna Ansari, author of Silk Roads: A Flavor Odyssey with Recipes from Baku to Beijing.
