The Preheated hosts reunite behind their microphones for the first time since October 2020, and there’s a lot to catch up on! Stefin’s still in London, cooking (with gas) in a new kitchen in between homework assignments for her master’s degree in creative writing. In Olympia, Andrea is working full-time as a recruiter and taking […]
Andrea’s making incredible progress expanding her GF and dairy-free baking repertoire thanks to Shauna Sever’s Giant Peanut Butter Cookies from Midwest Made and an adaptable fruit crisp from Weeknight Baking, while Stefin’s looking forward to celebrating National Tapioca Pudding Day on July 15. Need a great recipe? Try the duo’s favorite Coconut Tapioca Pudding with […]
Stefin loved finding a treasure trove of old Martha Stewart Everyday Food magazines while on holiday in the Pacific Northwest this summer, and was reminded how fun vintage magazines can be. Don’t ignore them when you’re stopping by a Little Free Library, garage sale, or thrift store! Magazines published within the last 10 years are […]
Stefin’s enchanted by an exhibit at London’s Victoria and Albert Museum that introduced her to Mexican artist Fernando Laposse. Check out the Totomoxtle website to see how this project is helping indigenous farmers, regenerating traditional agriculture, and creating a beautiful new art form — all with this month’s namesake ingredient, corn! Bakers talk a lot […]
It’s the first week of Completely Corny month, a theme suggested by Stefin’s husband, and heartily endorsed by Andrea’s (Happy Father’s Day, guys!). Whether you’re looking for caramel corn, a pound cake or even ice cream, this month will be full of some a-maizing treats, all with the signature ingredient. But first: your hosts (and […]
Raise your hand if you’ve been eating pie incorrectly all these years. Yep, so have Stefin and Andrea! According to etiquette expert Rachel Wagner, the “correct way” to eat pie requires a fork and a spoon and is quite a process, especially when it’s served à la mode! 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 […]
Did you, like Andrea in Episode 56, resolve to make a classic Yule Log this holiday season? Did you, like Andrea, simply run out of time? Then Stefin suggests you try a Yule … Stump?! (It’s a huge trend apparently, with everyone from Good Housekeeping UK to Martha Stewart jumping on the bandwagon!) If you’re […]
This week’s show starts with a celebration – or is it a Jubilee? – as Stefin explores the connection between Queen Victoria and the delicious dessert Cherries Jubilee. Speaking of cherries, Stefin’s also raving about a recent experience with a new kitchen gadget – the cherry pitter. Andrea gives an update from her August cookbook […]
Cooked peaches? Why not! Andrea’s singing a new tune after trying Ina Garten’s Fresh Peach Cake. Not only did Andrea embrace cooked fruit, she followed the recipe directions to the letter, and sifted the dry ingredients together in a separate bowl. This cake turned out beautifully and is just as good for breakfast as dessert. […]
