Milk Street Television is a cooking series hosted by Christopher Kimball, Lynn Clark, and Matthew Card, which premiered on PBS in 2017. The show is named after the Boston address where the trio's production company is located, and it aims to teach viewers how to cook international dishes without having to rely on traditional recipes.

The series is designed for both beginner and advanced cooks, and each episode takes viewers on a culinary adventure to explore a different cuisine or cooking technique. They demonstrate that international flavors can be incorporated into everyday cooking by using common ingredients from the local grocery store. The hosts break down the cooking process into simple, easy-to-follow steps that encourage viewers to try something new.

The show's format includes a combination of cooking demonstrations, interviews with experts, and field trips to kitchens and markets around the world. One of the unique features of Milk Street Television is the use of slow-motion footage to highlight the critical steps in any given recipe.

The hosts provide insightful tips and tricks that make even the most intricate recipes accessible for viewers of all skill levels. The show's focus on culinary education fits perfectly with the mission of local public television stations, which are committed to providing educational programming.

Lynn Clark, who also co-hosts the show, is a trained chef who formerly worked at America's Test Kitchen, where she met Kimball. Matthew Card, who serves as the show's lead instructor, is a former head chef at the Olives restaurant in New York City, and he brings extensive culinary experience to the table.
