Plus, what could be the world’s first ever MacLachlan recipe

I just joined the Culinary Council of the excellent, wonderful God’s Love We Deliver, a nonprofit organization in NYC that delivers high-quality, medically tailored meals to those struggling with illnesses — free of charge, regardless of income. I’m proud to be supporting them, and I’m joining a group of terrific people who also do so — including today’s guest on Food with Mark Bittman, actor Kyle MacLachlan.
Everyone knows Kyle: but he’s perhaps best known for being what you might call a muse to the eclectic genius director David Lynch; he had starring roles in the original Dune, Blue Velvet, and, of course, Twin Peaks — which firmly established him as acting royalty. But he’s also known for Sex and the City, Portlandia, and Desperate Housewives — and played the voice of Riley’s dad in Inside Out, so technically, even my 6-year-old grandson knows who he is.
Kyle also happens to be an extremely good guy; generous with his time, and thoughtful — and we talked, of course, about David Lynch, but also about Kyle’s winery — Pursued by Bear — and God’s Love We Deliver, and cooking, which he does a lot of, and a bunch of other things. Really, he’s the closest someone can come to being universally beloved; Kate is a huge fan — and joined the conversation — as am I, and we’re really happy to welcome Kyle to the show.
By the way, we also have what MAY BE the world’s first original Kyle MacLachlan recipe — that’s shared here.
Please listen, subscribe, and review. And we’d love to hear your food-related questions, as we’d like to start doing live Q&A: Email us: food@markbittman.com.
Thank you, as always. — Mark
