Nancy Leson
Youth Room
KNKX food commentator and former Seattle Times restaurant critic and columnist Nancy Leson can make a dozen bagels, from scratch, in an hour. Give her another hour and she’ll show you how to whip up a big batch of Chinese jiao-zi — dumpling wrappers included. She adores raw oysters, insists a great restaurant meal is worth a high tariff and buys her kitchenware at Goodwill.
