Making Doughnuts With Pastry Chef Zoë Kanan
Presented by Plugra and California Prunes
Zoë Kanan has been a busy baker. She consulted on the Mendl Jewish deli in Mexico City; hosted her “Bagel & Donut Feast” at Clare de Boer’s Stissing House in Upstate New York; made baked goods for Chef Susan Kim’s Early June pop-up in Paris; and baked pies as part of Chef Mei Lin’s team last Thanksgiving at—hello—Oprah’s house. And she’s working on her first bakery in New York City. The modern pastry chef hustle is real! Along the way, Zoë has become known for Zoë’s Doughies, her yeasted, squiggle-shaped treats that are as smile-inducing as they are delicious. She joins host Jessie Sheehan to share the how-to for making Doughies, from the ingredients to frying techniques and glaze options.
