Prior his tenure at America's Test Kitchen, Andrew Janjigian, an associate editor for Cook's Illustrated, was an organic chemist, chef, mushroom cultivator, oven builder, and cooking instructor. Which is to say that his job at America's Test Kitchen is the only thing his peripatetic resume is good for. In his spare time, he enjoys long walks on the beach, bread baking, and pining for the day Boston has a decent pizza joint. Which he might just have to open himself if the city doesn't get its act together soon. Follow him on Twitter at @wordloaf.
