In this episode, Karen shares heartfelt food memories, including preparing broad bean paste on crostini, a Tunisian fish soup taught by her mémère, and delectable cheesecake-flavored biscuit turnovers. She reflects on her unconventional childhood aspiration of becoming an embalmer, the determination that led her to open her own restaurant before turning 20, and her playful idea of getting a fennel bulb tattoo to honor her culinary passions.
Each conversation was recorded live in our Poliform kitchen as part of Savva’s popular podcast: Three Food Memories.
