2025’s Top Episode: Croissant 101 With Pastry Chef Nicola Lamb
We’re celebrating 2025 by re-airing our top episode of the year—host Jessie Sheehan’s interview with Nicola Lamb! Nicola is a London-based pastry chef and the author of “Sift: The Elements of Great Baking.” She has a pop-up bakery, Lark, and writes the popular Substack newsletter Kitchen Projects. Nicola joined Jessie earlier this year for a deep dive into one of the world’s most loved pastries: the croissant. She talks about the complexities of adapting her recipe for home bakers after years of producing 10,000 croissants a week in a professional bakery. The duo get deliciously nerdy about technique—from lamination to honeycomb structure—and what it really takes to perfect this baked good at home. Nicola also opens up about her winding culinary path, from being “the office cake lady” to honing her craft at Dominique Ansel’s famed NYC bakery. For Nicola’s croissant recipe, check out her book, “Sift.” Click here for Nicola’s French Toast Cinnamon Buns recipe. Thank you to Diamond Nuts & California Prunes for their support.
