Join Chris Morocco and friends as they help solve your kitchen emergencies.

A last-minute party with no menu inspiration. A kitchen with no space. A toddler who will only eat buttered pasta. Name your dinner emergency—Bon Appétit is here to help.

Dinner SOS is the podcast where we answer desperate home cooks' cries for help. In every episode, food director Chris Morocco and a rotating cast of cooking experts tackle a highly specific conundrum and present two solutions. The caller will pick one, cook through it, and let us know if we successfully helped rescue dinner.

Make sure you’re following Dinner SOS wherever you listen, and email us at podcasts@bonappetit.com with your own dinner emergencies—no problem is too big or too small!

Recreating Christina Tosi's Milk Bar Compost Cookies From Taste

He'll have to identify what he's making with a blindfold over his eyes, letting each of his other senses guide the way. Will Chris be able to reproduce these famous cookies without being able to see them?
