Why eat local? What if it isn't easy? What if the things I want aren't available? What's the point? Alison and I have both considered these questions for ourselves and factored them into decisions that we've made about how we live our everyday lives. We didn't make the changes overnight, and we don't even suggest people do so. After the many books we have read, the real-life experiences we have had, and guests we have interviewed on the subject of factory farming vs humane peasant farming, we have come to some conclusions about eating local that might surprise you. They might not be the conclusions or the “arguments” you were expecting.This episode features an aftershow which could possibly be described as a little bit salty, where some spicier opinions came to the fore. It was impossible to include everything we had to say and keep the main episode at a reasonable length of time.

It's that time of year! The Christmas cookies, the trees, the hot chocolate, and making gingerbread houses! This is where the fun of the holidays meets the art and engineering skills of the parents. Our kids love making gingerbread houses, and the do-it-yourself boxes make it look so easy until you try to put it all together yourself. About an hour later and 15 different messes of sprinkles, frosting, and shavings of gingerbread everywhere, the fine line between enjoyable Christmas activity and test of wills becomes blurred. It's a holiday tradition, but why? Well, on today's episode of the Missing Chapter, we put it all together…hopefully not like my most recent gingerbread house. We're highly excited, and highly caffeinated, and ready to get into the Christmas spirit on today's episode of the Missing Chapter.Want some Missing Chapter merchandise? Click HERE!

Send us a textThis episode is dedicated to the art of baking beautiful pies and tarts, just in time for the holidays! We welcome Laura Klynstra, author of The Homemade Pie Cookbook, to share tips and ideas for kicking our baking game up a notch. We get straight into asking Laura all our many questions about achieving the perfect base for our holiday desserts. Whether you love to use butter, shortening, or even lard, the important thing is to leave your fat a little chunky to create those flaky layers in your pie crust. If you prefer a rustic look and feel, a galette might be more your style. Hot tip: bake it in a cast iron skillet to avoid the mess if the filling leaks out of the pastry. When it comes to decorating the top of your pies and tarts, prepare your toppings in advance but wait to finish it off just before you serve it. Try adding cookies, fruit, caramel sauce or piped whipped cream to design your beautiful creations. We made Laura's recipe for a Raspberry Linzer Tart. This delicious dessert is based on a Linzer cookie, and is a beautiful tart to serve this holiday season. Get the Raspberry Linzer Tart recipe.

Trying new things is at the heart of designing your next chapter — like trying on clothes, you experiment to see what fits your life now. Baking a cake for the first time reminded me that life after 50 is the same: old rules don't matter, mistakes happen, and what counts is what works for you. When you take control and mix your experience with confidence, you create something richer, bolder, and unmistakably your own.//WHEN YOU'RE READY, HERE'S HOW I CAN HELP YOUBUY THE BOOK: https://a.co/d/czSh6zxGet the books' bonus resources: https://sharriharmel.com/Join Substack to continue the conversation: https://sharriharmel.substack.com/Start your Breakthrough today: https://sharriharmel.com/breakthrough/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/sharriharmel/Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/273197629997812

Heidrun Metzler, the acclaimed author of the National Indie Excellence Award-winning German Heritage Baking, Volume I, shares her unique journey from Oberursel, Germany, to a macadamia nut farm in Hawaii. This interview provides deep insight into her commitment to preserving Old-World baking traditions and making them accessible to modern home bakers. From Bavaria to the Big Island: Adapting Tradition Heidrun discussed the profound cultural and climatic shift of moving from Germany to a farm in Hawaii. Influence on Baking: The tropical climate and local ingredients required careful adaptation of her traditional recipes. This challenge ensured that the techniques remained authentic while the final product worked perfectly in a modern, non-European kitchen setting. More Than Just Sugar: The Secret to Authentic German Flavor Heidrun explains that the essence of authentic German baking is that it is "less sweet, more flavorful." The Difference: German baking relies on ingredients for flavor depth (like quality vanilla, spices, and nuts) rather than just sugar. Common Mistake: The biggest mistake American bakers make is adding too much sugar to recipes, which masks the rich, complex flavors that define German desserts. The Secret: Achieving that rich, balanced taste involves precision and trust in the quality of the primary ingredients. The Baking "Labor of Love" and Connection Heidrun revealed that her book was a "labor of love" over ten years in the making. Biggest Challenge: The sheer scope of research and meticulous testing to ensure historical accuracy and modern kitchen success was the greatest hurdle. Motivation: Her motivation was driven by the desire for "connection, tradition, and sharing joy," embodied by a heartfelt childhood memory of her family kitchen—a place where recipes were passed down not just as instructions, but as acts of love. The Accidental Equestrian: Precision and Discipline Heidrun's seemingly disparate passions—baking and her life as an accomplished equestrian and trick horse trainer—are actually connected. Shared Discipline: Both activities demand extraordinary precision and patience. The discipline required to train a horse to perform complex movements mirrors the exactness needed in from-scratch baking to achieve a perfect result. The two worlds reinforce the importance of meticulous technique. The Baking Secret Weapon For a home baker starting their German baking journey, Heidrun offers practical advice: Secret Technique/Tool: She suggests focusing on the proper use of a kitchen scale for precise measurements, moving away from volume-based cups. Recommended Starter Recipe: She recommends beginning with one of the simpler yet rewarding recipes, such as a classic German Butterkuchen (Butter Cake). Preserving Heritage for a New Generation Heidrun emphasized that in an age of instant gratification, preserving these time-honored baking traditions is more vital than ever. They are not just recipes; they are culinary history, connecting the present generation to their roots and family stories through the shared experience of baking. Web: https://heidrunmetzler.com/ About: Heidrun is a lifelong, authentic baker with deep roots in German tradition.

Helen Goh - both psychologist and pastry chef - on her book Baking and the Meaning of Life: How to find joy in 100 recipes.
Happy Thanksgiving! Time to go over the baking menu for this year. Brew up that tea and come chat with me!
How many times have you told yourself, "I will get back on track after the holidays, because right now is just impossible?” We're often convinced that we need the calendar to calm down—no more travel, no more parties, no more treats—before we can finally make progress toward our goals. But what if the "right time" to lose weight isn't a date on the calendar, but a decision you make today? In this episode, we tackle the myth that the holidays are the "worst time" to be a normal eater. We'll show you how to swap rigid food rules for real choices, so you can enjoy the season's joy, leave every event feeling light and proud, and step into the new year with trust, not regret. The goal isn't perfection; it's practice. Learn how to be a woman who trusts herself around food, no matter how chaotic the season gets. In This Episode, We Cover: The Myth of the Right Time: Why your brain loves to delay starting, and why waiting for "perfect conditions" is the biggest block to progress. Rules vs. Choices: How rigid dieting leads to secret overeating, and how flexible, normal eating patterns build long-term trust and health. The Plate Plan for Buffets: A simple strategy for navigating parties and buffets by treating the spread like a museum, not a target. Handling Family Food Pressure: How to set kind boundaries and honor the cook and your body, even when love shows up as an extra serving. Baking & Tasting Sanely: Simple plans for enjoying holiday treats and tasting your creations without accidentally eating a whole serving before dinner. Chaos Control: Strategies for travel days and schedule interruptions to keep you feeling steady with simple protein and produce anchors. The Day-After Reset: What to do when you overeat (you're human!): how to skip the shame spiral and get back to normal in one simple meal. Your Holiday Toolkit: Three powerful tools—Choices, Scientist Brain, and Good/Better/Best—to help you run your own game all season long. Key Concepts & Analogies: Learning to Swim: Progress comes from practicing in the shallow end with sparkly lights (the holidays!), not waiting for a quiet lab. The Museum Analogy: You don't carry the whole museum home. Visit a few favorite dishes with full attention, then leave with energy. Love as Sunshine: You can receive love (and thank the cook) without needing two extra scoops of food. Simple Action Step for This Week: Before your next holiday event, ask yourself these three questions: What do I want to enjoy? What is worth it? How do I want to feel later? Let your answers guide your choices. Remember, you don't need perfect days. You need a few steady choices, repeated. https://confidentbody.coach/tips/ BOOK: You Are A Miracle

This week, Rose and Crystal sit down with Samantha Seneviratne — cookbook author, food stylist, and NYT recipe superstar — to talk about craft, curiosity, and the quiet joy of sweets that meet you where you are. From The Joys of Baking and The New Sugar and Spice to Simply Cake and Bake Smart, Sam shares what she's learned about writing recipes that last and why her 2024 hit Microwave Chocolate Pudding Cake became the most popular dessert on The New York Times. The conversation winds through her inspirations — from Diana Henry and Dorie Greenspan to Zoe François, Yossi Arefi, and Jessie Sheehan — and lands, as always, in the kitchen, where tenderness meets technique.Mentioned in this episode: Diana Henry, “How to Eat a Peach: Menus, Stories and Places”yolt.nycRegan Daley, “In the Sweet Kitchen: The Definitive Baker's Companion”Yossi ArefiDorie GreenspanZoe FrancoisJessie Sheehan-“How To Write A Cookbook” author unknown -Publisher's Weekly2024 most popular NY Times Recipe - Microwave Chocolate Pudding Cake, Samantha Seneviratne

Milk Bar founder Christina Tosi didn't set out to become a dessert icon. She just knew that if there was one thing she'd like to do every day for the rest of her life, it was baking cookies. That instinct led her from the world of New York City fine dining to the early days of Momofuku, where David Chang pushed Christina to pursue her passion for baking. Since then, Milk Bar has become synonymous with cereal milk ice cream and compost cookies, and Christina herself has won two James Beard awards, written numerous cookbooks, and turned Milk Bar into a cultural phenomenon. In this episode, recorded live at the Charter Workplace Summit in NYC, Christina shares the ingredients behind Milk Bar's success: a strong work ethic inherited from her parents, a sense of childlike wonder that she's never lost sight of, and a soundtrack – from Bob Marley to LCD Soundsystem – that reminds her to lose herself, find herself, and keep creating. Here are her songs: The Beatles, “A Hard Day's Night” Alanis Morissette, “You Oughta Know” Bob Marley and the Wailers, “Waiting in Vain” LCD Soundsystem, “Daft Punk Is Playing at My House” Listen to Christina Tosi's full playlist on Spotify.

Jewish law prohibits bread (Pas Akum), cooked foods (Bishul Akum), and milk/cheese (Chalav/Gevinat Akum) prepared by non-Jews, not because the food itself is biblically non-kosher, but because the Sages wanted to limit close social bonding and the risk of intermarriage in ancient times, while also guarding against real kashrut problems (non-kosher animals, fats, etc.). For bread, a Jew must bake it or at least turn on the oven (Pas Yisrael); for cooked foods, the dish must be something not eaten raw and fit for a royal table, and a Jew must participate in the cooking; for milk, a Jew must supervise the milking (Chalav Yisrael) and cheese-making.In modern America (2025), government regulation and abundant kosher options have dramatically relaxed many of these rules according to the vast majority of poskim: supermarket bread (Wonder Bread, H-E-B, etc.) is permitted when no Jewish bakery is nearby, regular USDA milk and butter are kosher (Chalav Stam per Rav Moshe Feinstein), and most factory-canned, sealed, or restaurant foods where a Jew turned on the flame are fine, provided that everything cooked was Kosher. The gold standard for the meticulous remains Pas Yisrael, Bishul Yisrael, and Chalav Yisrael whenever reasonably available, but for everyday life in the U.S., plain coffee, beer, and grocery-store staples are reliably kosher.The episode concludes with a transition to the Ask Away #24._____________The Everyday Judaism Podcast is dedicated to learning, understanding and appreciating the greatness of Jewish heritage and the Torah through the simplified, concise study of Halacha, Jewish Law, thereby enhancing our understanding of how Hashem wants us to live our daily lives in a Jewish way._____________This Podcast Series is Generously Underwritten by Marshall & Doreen LernerDownload & Print the Everyday Judaism Halacha Notes:https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1RL-PideM42B_LFn6pbrk8MMU5-zqlLG5This episode (Ep. #70) of the Everyday Judaism Podcast by Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe of TORCH is dedicated to my dearest friends, Marshall & Doreen Lerner!
