Baking has never been as fun or approachable as when Christina Tosi talks about it. She loves the nerdy science side of it just as much as she loves using those basic ingredients we all know from our childhoods. She inspires the heck out of us and we're sharing all the lessons we've learned from her. Remember- baking and food is a form of creativity and there is plenty of fun to be had.
