Chapter 1, “Original Sin”: In the summer of 2020, Bon Appétit faced an online reckoning. It imploded, seemingly overnight, former employees calling it a racist and toxic workplace. But the story of what actually happened there started ten years earlier.



Here are some recipes to try from the people featured in this week’s story:

Yewande Komolafe’s yam and plantain curry with crispy shallots and sheet-pan gochujang chicken

Sue Li’s caramelized onion galette and creamy turmeric pasta. Rick Martinez’s mole sencillo.

Eleanore Park’s ginger-scallion meatballs with lemony farro.
