Andy Baraghani is a food editor for Bon Appetit, the wildly popular online platform and magazine for food and cooking, where he has made a name for himself on their culinary channel, Healthyish. From his cooking tutorials to his Instagram account, he enjoys a deep connection with his audience. A highly personal piece he wrote for the Bon Appetit website, which detailed coming to terms with his Iranian heritage and coming out as gay, went viral, and prompted an army of fans to get in touch. Recorded during the Coronavirus pandemic, he chats to Danielle Radojcin about growing up in California, the love affair that led him to New York and the self-belief that has helped him succeed.
