Welcome to Times Will Tell, the weekly podcast from The Times of Israel.
This week, we speak with home chef Shaily Lipa about her latest book “Hakol Beseder” about the power of an active and organized kitchen, which is now being translated into English as “KitcheNeat.”
Lipa is a beloved Israeli TV personality and lifestyle authority, who has written eleven books in Hebrew. This latest book came out in March 2020 at the start of the coronavirus pandemic, just as Israel went into a lockdown.
It’s about the benefits of a well-organized and active kitchen — the heart and soul of any household — and how it can offer the path to a healthy, balanced and fulfilling life.
Lipa speaks on Times Will Tell about her 5 Rules to an Organized Kitchen, the guiding principles of KitcheNeat.

She also talks about her studies in Hasidism and how that affected her research and writing, as well as her thoughts about other home-organizing experts, and how her readers’ reactions to “KitcheNeat” have been a powerful antidote during these very uncertain times.
