Shilpa Uskokovic head shot - Bon Appétit

Shilpa Uskokovic

Senior Test Kitchen Editor

A graduate of The Culinary Institute of America, Shilpa worked in some fancy-pants, Michelin-starred restaurants in New York City (like Perry St, Jean-Georges, Marea, and The NoMad) before joining Bon Appétit as food editor. At BA, Shilpa transforms her restaurant experience into reliable recipes that range from slightly project-y (like this raspberry cream cake) to incredibly easy (a set-it-and-forget-it burnt orange roast pork) and everything in between. She has an economics degree from a previous life that she never uses, and she loves cake, books, instant pudding mix, and grocery shopping.
