Rebecca Firkser

Rebecca’s work has appeared in TASTE, Eater, Food52, The Kitchn, Serious Eats, The Strategist, and NYT Cooking, among others. Previously, she was a staff editor at a handful of media publications, as well as a freelance recipe tester, culinary producer, and stylist. Before joining Bon Appétit and Epicurious, she was mostly working on cookbooks, among them her own, Galette! (Artisan, 2025). Rebecca aspires to make budget-friendly cooking exciting to everyone, and hopes you'll learn to love beans as much as she does. Raised in Northern New Jersey, she’ll never say no to a slice of crumb cake. The “k” comes before the “s” in her last name. rebeccafirkser.com
