Carolyn Malcoun

As EatingWell magazine's food editor, Carolyn Malcoun searches for cool farmers, chefs and other food stories to tell on the pages of the magazine. She has a bachelor's degree in journalism from the University of Wisconsin and a culinary arts degree from New England Culinary Institute. She started at EatingWell as an intern in the Test Kitchen in 2005 and joined the editorial team soon after.

Her culinary interest is rooted in her childhood: baking thousands of Christmas cookies every year with her mom (her favorite: pecan tartlets), picking leaves off bunches of parsley to make tabbouleh with her Lebanese dad, and churning out beef bourguignon and French silk pie at age 10.

Though she's lived in Michigan, Arizona, Texas, Maine, Wisconsin and Minnesota, Carolyn says Vermont felt like home from the moment she arrived there. She has way-too-big of a garden and loves exploring the outdoors (be it hiking, ski touring, snowshoeing, biking, camping) with her husband, daughter and two dogs. Carolyn has a deep-seated love for live music, sour beers and Mexican food.
