It’s a very specific cultural moment when a Twitter thread about deriving yeast at home from the skin of fruits goes viral, but here we are.

The Spoon editorial team got together this week to discuss said Twitter thread from a Ginkgo yeast geneticist Sudeep Agarwala. We also chatted about a few other stories, including:

  • Does quarantine time mean it’s the smart kitchen’s time to shine?
  • How Scott Heimendinger and Larry Jordan inspired all of us by showing us how to get started building the next big idea in the kitchen.
  • Everyone has begun to think about their food supply. Does this mean consumers will finally embrace smart garden equipment?
  • Speaking of home gardening, Farmshelf debuts their first home unit.

As always, you can find the Food Tech Show in Apple Podcasts, Spotify or wherever you listen to podcasts.

You can also download this episode to your device or just click play below.

If you’d like to join the Spoon editorial team next week when they record the podcast, our next live podcast recording on Crowdcast is next Tuesday at 10 AM PST. You can sign up here.
