James Kenji López-Alt, known as Kenji, is an American chef and food writer.[1][2][3]

Early life and education

He was born James Kenji Alt, the son of Harvard University geneticist and immunologist Frederick Alt, and on his mother's side, the grandson of chemist Koji Nakanishi.[4][5] López-Alt graduated from Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) in 2002, where he majored in Architecture.[6] His first restaurant job was during his sophomore year of college. He attempted to take a job as a waiter at a local restaurant, but they needed a prep cook.[7]

Upon marriage, López-Alt combined his birth surname, Alt, with that of his wife Adriana López.[4][8]

Career

López-Alt worked with several Boston chefs including Barbara Lynch and Ken Oringer.[9] He went on to work as a test cook and editor at Cook's Illustrated magazine and America's Test Kitchen.[10]

He was the Managing Culinary Director and is the Chief Culinary Consultant of "Serious Eats", a food blog, where he authors the James Beard Award-nominated column "The Food Lab".[11][12] He is also a columnist for Cooking Light.[13]

His first book, The Food Lab: Better Home Cooking Through Science, was published in September 2015 by W. W. Norton & Company.[14] It was a New York Times Bestseller[15] and won the 2016 James Beard Foundation Award for General Cooking,[16] as well as the International Association of Culinary Professionals awards for Best American Cookbook and Cookbook of the Year.[17]
