We talked about a few different topics this time as we played with a different show format. We started with some holiday cooking tips that we learned from Thanksgiving (1:02). We followed this with a trick for using your BBQ grill as a makeshift hot box (6:45). We finally talked about cooking for pets and making your own dog food at home (10:46).

Our “Word of the Day” was Clarified Butter (17:50). As part of this we went over how to clarify your own butter.

The question this episode involved a discussion about recipes (23:31).

Topic: Demystifying Stocks & Sauces

Talking about some of the basics in cooking, we try to take the mystery and confusion out of making stocks and sauces. We cover the types and principles of stock, the mother sauces and how to make them, as well as some of the derivative sauces.

Our “Word of the Day” was Mirepoix (19:17).

The listener question this time was about alternatives to pasta, especially if you have a gluten allergy or intolerance. It’s another nice touch about cooking for allergies (22:31).

Keep sending in those questions and feel free to share your ideas, or even just your thoughts about the show and food in general. Get in touch with us by email, Facebook, Instagram, or Twitter. Also check out our brand new YouTube channel.

Topic: Sandwiches & Deep-Frying at Home

This was a fun episode to do. We cover what makes up a sandwich and talk a little bit about some of the different kinds of bread that can be used. We then go on to discuss how you would deep fry food at home with minimal equipment and how to make home-made potato chips to go with your sandwich (12:20).

Our “Word of the Day” was Mirepoix (20:28).

The listener question this time was close to my heart, being lactose intolerant. It asked if you can substitute lactose free or other milk alternatives for milk in recipes. It’s a nice touch on allergy cooking (24:11).

I’m really enjoying the questions, and look forward to more of them. Also feel free to share your ideas, or even just your thoughts about the show and food in general. Get in touch with us by email, Facebook, Instagram, or Twitter. Also check out our brand new YouTube channel.
