'At home, I try a handful of sour jelly beans from Trader Joe’s. Sour jelly beans are the ideal sensory human food.' Read burlapandbarrel co-founder Ethan Frisch's GrubStreetDiet
Illustration: Maanvi Kapur As the cofounder of the spice company Burlap & Barrel, which he began in 2016 alongside Ori Zohar, Ethan Frisch spends plenty of time testing new cardamoms and cumins, but when he’s not chewing on spices, he’s lately been busy working through supply-chain concerns — “shipments stuck in transit, containers essentially getting lost” — but still has time to explore his Queens neighborhood’s restaurant scene, which means miles-long taco treks, quick izakaya runs,...

A bowl of Ronnybrook Farm yogurt from upstate with jam from V Smiley in Vermont.

Shahla shoves rainbow cookies and rugelach into my mouth while we sit in traffic on the L.I.E.
