Adam Ragusea

Journalism professor turned home cook YouTuber whose "I'm not a professional chef and neither are you" positioning is exactly right for the 2.5M subscribers who cook in normal kitchens without professional equipment. His explainer videos on the food science behind cooking decisions (why do we add salt to pasta water? what does it actually do?) are model examples of accessible science communication. His "regional American food" series is the best cultural food documentary content on YouTube.
