Last week I had the wonderful opportunity to meet with Aïda Mollenkamp. A girl of many talents, Aïda is an editor and recipe developer at Chow, a home cook, a passionate fan of Slow Food, and host of the Food Network's new, interactive show, Ask Aida.
Aïda took time out of her busy schedule — the San Franciscan travels to New York twice a month — to give us a tour of the Chow test kitchen. Afterwards, Aïda and I sat down for a quick Q&A session.
To take a behind-the-scenes look at Chow, and find out more about Ask Aida, watch our exclusive video below.

What a great interview! Her advice at the end is something I live by and always have. Thanks for sharing it.
1Agree with haze - food is life in my book.
2i think that she has the look that the FN needs to change the skew of it's viewers. i feel like they are trying to find new personalities that can boost the ratings and she might do it. i haven't had a chance to see her new show - but i will certainly try to tune in now that i know more of what she's about.
3Don't see her appeal, nor any reason to watch her show. BORING.
