In anticipation of Prince Harry and Ms Meghan Markle’s big wedding on May 19, Stefin and Andrea have crowned themselves with royal titles, and are gleeful that Kate, the Duchess of Cambridge, was recently […]
Raisin lovers everywhere, unite! Stefin starts the show with an impassioned defense of the much-maligned Raisinet, which Andrea is most decidedly not interested in, even though they’ve started making a version with dark chocolate, which she does love! And it turns out there is a candy horoscope for dark chocolate lovers: they are mature realists, […]
It’s the second week of listener-requested Bread Month! But first, Andrea recaps the winners from the final Olympia Pie Fest — reporting that ninjas, fruits of the forest, and a Cooks’ Illustrated classic all took top honors. Meanwhile, Stefin admits it’s difficult to forget about the recipes that don’t make the cut every month, and […]
Stefin is seeing 2018 food trend “functional food” from Episode 60 everywhere she turns, including her favorite grocery store’s weekly and monthly publications.

Andrea is hot off another successful cookbook club meeting, and has several desserts to report on from the new Smitten Kitchen cookbook, Every Day, including a stunning and scrumptious Danish Rice Pudding that she might never have tried on her own, but, thanks to her club, is now one of her favorites.

How about our reminder from Episode 1 — to take advantage of fall sales on baking spices, flour and butter? It was […]
If Andrea and Stefin sound particularly giddy in this short and sweet bonus episode, it’s because they’re together again in jolly old England. In a Preheated first, they’re recording together in the same room, and that room happens to be in London!
