Ep 131: Hip to Be Square
Monday Jul 01, 2019
Monday Jul 01, 2019
After having so much fun with their Round theme in November 2018, Stefin and Andrea are back with more geometric goodies. This month, tasty treats that are Hip to Be Square (think bar cookies, ice-cream sandwiches, and cake!). First up: Cookie Butter Blondies from Jenna at the Butternut Bakery. Will adding this addictive spread to the batter make a blondie that’s as dangerous to have in the house as a brownie? Then the hosts have a primer on making your own extracts. From vanilla to mint, if you’ve got time (or an Instant Pot), these can be a tasty and fun summertime project — and will be ready in time for holiday gifting. All this, plus a rundown of summertime reading, and a new use for a surprising part of your food processor.

In the last week of Completely Corny month, Stefin and Andrea have the scoop on Sweet Corn and Black Raspberry Ice Cream from Jenni’s Splendid, and a preview/review of a Brazilian-style coconut cornmeal cake you can make in your blender (!). Plus, they chat about a new art form that uses Mexican corn husks, what bakers really want as gifts, and Nigel Slater’s no-churn fennel ice cream. Finally, the duo take to the stage and wave their magic wands, revealing a plethora of magical kitchen hacks. Ta da!

Monday Jun 17, 2019
Did you know you can call your Preheated hosts? Andrea’s giddy after a voicemail from a listener tips her off on where to find passion fruit purée in Olympia. Loyal listeners know Stefin’s two years in London is coming to a close .. or is it? What's the future for your fave UK-based host, and what will it mean for your favorite podcast? Then it’s on to a review of Zebra Corn from The Spruce Eats — did this homemade Cracker Jack hit it out of the park? The next “corny” bake along, er ... freeze along, is Sweet Corn & Black Raspberry Ice Cream from Jenni’s Splendid. How will adding corn cobs to the custard work out for your hosts? Finally, would our grandmothers recognize today’s bakes? From convenience items to the latest appliances, it’s amazing how much has changed in our kitchens over the last 100 years .. and how much has stayed the same.

Monday Jun 03, 2019
Monday Jun 03, 2019
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!). But first: your hosts debate the tantalizing idea of breakfast appetizers, and share baking inspiration from Listeners. Then it’s on to June's first “corny” bake — Berry Long Cake with Ginger Crumb from Julie Richardson’s Vintage Cakes cookbook. Grab your local berries, candied ginger and, of course, cornmeal, and bake along! And speaking of what’s in season, the hosts have a worldwide rundown of fresh produce in both the Northern and Southern Hemispheres, as well as ideas for how to make the most of it over the next few months.

Ep 125: Posh PopTarts
Monday May 20, 2019
Monday May 20, 2019
Three-day weekends and festive "Dads and Grads" celebrations are on the horizon and Andrea and Stefin want to know what you’re baking up for the start-of-summer gatherings. Take inspiration from the back catalog with the August 2017 "Potlucks & Picnics" month, then connect on the Preheated Baking Podcast Listeners group on Facebook to let us know what you're up to. This week the dynamic duo are reviewing Homemade PopTarts from The Pioneer Woman contributor Sommer Collier. Kellogg’s may not want to hear about these easy, pretty and tasty “jam pies." Next up during Made it Myself Month: Mango & Passion Fruit Energy Bars from Watirose Weekend contributor (and former Great British Bake Off contestant) Martha Collison. Will these add some passionfruit puree pep to your hosts’ step? (Just don’t ask Andrea to say that three times fast!) Finally, the Globetrotting Gourmet heads to India for a wealth of delicious foods and cultural experiences.

Monday May 13, 2019
Monday May 13, 2019
It’s the second week of Made it Myself Month and the dynamic duo are up with a review of the Life Changing Crackers … did they live up to their name? (Well, Stefin did learn a new vocabulary word, and Andrea may have developed synesthesia!) Then it’s on to a slightly less healthy, but perhaps no less crucially important homemade treat — Stefin’s 1980s PixiFood — PopTarts! Will they be better than the iconic original? Finally, whether you want to perfect your pie crust or start your sourdough, there's probably a baking class out there to help you do it -- and your hosts have a worldwide round up to inspire your holiday planning.

Ep 123: Made it Myself!
Monday May 06, 2019
Monday May 06, 2019
May is Made it Myself (MIM) month! But before diving into homemade crackers, Pop Tarts, power bars and even Oreos, Andrea issues a cautionary tale about baking in a kitchen that’s not your own, and a hilarious (and delicious) recap of treats Preheated Listeners have taken through airport security. (Just how many travelers are taking fully decorated cakes -- or muffulettas -- through TSA these days?) Next, Stefin has a five-star review of Waitress the Musical — a show she’s recommending to all the bakers in her life. Then it’s on to the first “MIM” bake — Life Changing Crackers from My New Roots. Chock full of seeds, oats and, yes, plenty of fiber, will this savory treat live up to its name? Finally, if you’re planning a summer vacation (or your honeymoon or 40th birthday, like one of your hosts) you may want to check out one of the hundreds of foodie factory tours that are available worldwide.
