In this episode of Munching on Molecules, we chat with Jill Houk, Corporate R&D Chef at Culinary Culture.
A pivotal moment came early in her journey, when her mother asked: “If you could do anything you wanted, what would you do?” That question sparked a career transformation. We dive into her path, from launching a health-conscious catering company to becoming a cookbook author, podcaster, TV personality, and product development powerhouse. Her work has helped shape food products across the U.S., and she continues to raise the bar for culinary excellence in both manufacturing and food service.
Fresh from a culinary immersion trip to Mexico City, Jill shares stories and flavour insights from her recent travels (prepare yourself for tastiness). Tune in to hear her secret to staying curious (and hungry) and what keeps her top notch in a fast-moving industry. This episode is a flavourful blend of insight, passion, and real-world innovation.
