Because 2 days is never enough.

I’m not the biggest fan of Food and Wine Magazine, but their foray into video could be worth checking out. The videos, which have been released as free podcasts in the Apple iTunes store, feature everything from instructional cooking segments to Q & A with celebrity chefs. The new content will also be available for free on foodandwine.com in the coming weeks.

From Mediaweek:
Initially, the magazine has pieced together 22 cooking demonstrations from an epicurean festival held in Apsen, Colo., last June, as well as eight interviews with chefs who are regulars on the Food Network, including Bobby Flay, Mario Batali and Emeril Lagasse. But unlike the Food Network’s highly produced fare, Food & Wine is attempting to begin producing more raw video content that provides users with unfettered access to their favorite chefs. Future podcasts will feature footage of top chefs working in their own restaurants.

I just watched Mario Batali squeeze the juices out of a crab and realized this could be a lot of fun to watch if you don’t have TV or if you are traveling with your video iPod.

Check out the podcasts yourself, then leave us a comment to let us know what you think.
