This episode features Coral Lee, Food52 Podcast Network’s Producer. For this conversation, she is on the other side of the mic sharing a deeply personal story of the cake that encapsulates her grandmother’s communal table. Coral explores the nature of intimacy, her hyphenated identity as an Asian-American, as well as the complicated relationship that she has with her parents. 

If you’re hungry for more of this story, you can read the original essay, “What Grandma's Sponge Cake Taught Me About Being Asian in America” published by Food52.
