After the great series Chef’s Table, we have another Netflix series about culinary topics coming up with Cooked. Responsible for the new format are Alex Gibney (Going Clear) and Michael Pollan (The Omnivore’s Dilemma).
In a total of four parts, Cooked is dedicated to the four elements and shows what role they play in cooking. At the same time, the classical context, the origin of recipes and foodstuffs is also repeatedly linked to their industrial production. And, of course, we’ll be able to look over the shoulder of Michael Pollan as he cooks at his home in California.
An ode to slow cooking and a call to get back to your own stove, the Guardian summarizes its review.
From February 19 on Netflix
