Andrea is thrilled to finally take Listener Renee up on her suggestion to reduce food waste! She used the chickpea liquid from her weekly hummus prep to make Fudgy Aquafaba Brownies, a new recipe from Cooking with Scraps by Lindsey-Jean Hard. While this recipe did break Andrea’s rule of “No brownies in the house” she […]
Stefin and Andrea are reunited in London, where they’ve kept busy with Pancake Day festivities, and a puff pastry class at Borough Market’s Bread Ahead baking school. Review: Milk Chocolate Pots with Citrus Shortbread from BBC Good Food Kitchen science is puling a fast one on the baking duo this week. Though both bakers (and […]
Andrea’s ongoing cardamom obsession is fueled by Listener Maggie‘s suggested recipe for King Arthur Flour’s Banana Cardamom Upside-Down Cake, as well as the discovery of Listener-favorite cookbook The Cardamom Trail by former Great British Bake-Off finalist Chetna Makan. Stefin’s got some desserts that appeared “Previously on Preheated” (see below!) that would be perfect for St. […]
It’s a month devoted to that sweet, sensory sensation we all know and love … chocolate! Whether it’s cookies, breads, puddings or some magic dust, Andrea and Stefin are willing to don their chocolatiers’ hats and get busy baking … and tasting. Thanks to Listener Ben (10 years old) who sent in a picture of […]
Stefin’s flying solo this week, and she jumps right in with an update on the American Pie Council’s 2017 and 2018 amateur winners.

Pie’s been in the news again, and […]
Andrea is reporting in on the epic Twitter war between @JPosnanski who thinks “Fruit pie is delicious” vs. @KenTremendous who believes “Hot fruit is disgusting.” Stefin falls in with the majority with “Fruit pie is delicious” while Andrea wavers a bit, since she’s not a fan of cooked apple! Listeners, where do you stand in […]
It’s Preheated’s Third Annual Pie Month! But before Stefin and Andrea roll out the top crust, they each report on some progress with their “19 for ‘19” Baking Resolutions.
