informative to... well, let's just say aroma-tic.Welcome to the Well Seasoned Librarian Podcast. This is Season 16, Episode "Number Two" , oh sorry, Meant Number 6Today, our fearless leader Dean is chatting with the one and only Gordon Kindness, who's beaming in all the way from across the pond in the UK. Now, Gordon isn't just your average food fancier; he's a gastro-intestinal guru, a content creator who's taking the YouTube, TikTok, and Instagram scenes by storm, one rumble at a time.Known for his refreshingly honest (and sometimes brutally so) opinions, a palate that's braver than a toddler facing broccoli, and a certain je ne sais quoi that often involves unexpected sound effects, Gordon plunges headfirst into the culinary deep end. He fearlessly reviews everything from the newest fancy-pants eateries to those hidden local treasures that might just leave you with a digestive surprise. He even tackles food challenges that could send lesser stomachs running for the nearest porcelain throne.While his distinctive focus on how various edibles interact with his inner workings truly sets him apart (think of it as a very… personal food journey), Gordon's genuine love for all things edible and his knack for connecting with his audience have earned him a truly devoted following – a fanbase that appreciates his unfiltered approach, shall we say. He brings a fresh and often hilariously unrestrained perspective to food reviews, making his content both informative and wildly entertaining (especially if you have a strong constitution... and maybe some air freshener).So, do yourself a flavor and follow Gordon on his social media channels to join his ongoing culinary expeditions and get his uniquely… bottom-line take on the delicious and sometimes explosive world of food!Instagram: @gordonkindness:If you follow my podcast and enjoy it, I'm on @buymeacoffee.

Can you copyright a recipe? Two Australian cookbook authors are clashing over claims of plagiarised recipes. Nagi Maehashi, who runs the popular food blog RecipeTin Eats, says influencer Brooke Bellamy's new cookbook ‘Bake with Brooki' contains uncannily similar ingredients, quantities, and instructions for a caramel slice and baklava. Food writer and cookbook Author Allyson Gofton told Kerre Woodham that since baking doesn't differ that much on a basic level, where copyright would come into the argument would be in the method and how it's written. She says that unless the text is copied word for word, it would be very hard to prove, especially for classics like baklava. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Katarina Cermelj (Kat for short) is an award-winning cookbook author, food writer, photographer and creator of the popular ‘free-from' baking blog, The Loopy Whisk. She has a PhD in Inorganic Chemistry from the University of Oxford, having previously completed her undergraduate Chemistry degree at the same university. Being a science nerd, she loves to use a very scientific, analytical approach in her recipe development – and she's also a big believer in not only providing reliable, fail-proof (and always delicious) recipes, but also the reasons for why they work. Kat's first cookbook, Baked to Perfection, has been described as "the only gluten-free cookbook you'll ever need" and has won The Guild of Food Writers Specialist Subject Award 2022, the Fortnum & Mason Food and Drink Debut Cookery Book Award 2022 and was a finalist in the IACP Awards 2022. Her latest cookbook, The Elements of Baking, is an in-depth (and enthusiastically nerdy) guide to making any recipe gluten-free, dairy-free, egg-free, vegan or even gluten-free vegan – all while ensuring it still tastes spectacular. theloopywhisk.com Instagram, Facebook and TikTok: @theloopywhisk In this episode, we discuss: How an intolerance for gluten and dairy sparked the launch of The Loopy Whisk How her PhD in inorganic chemistry paved the way for a career as a recipe developer           Why the formula matters – using GF flour doesn't guarantee success           What gluten is, and why it causes some people big problems Tips for making the best GF bread Why sometimes you have to adjust the amount of flour used in GF recipes on the fly What her two cookbooks, Baked to Perfection and The Elements of Baking, are all about  The one GF recipe that Kat is most proud of And much more!

Dans le cadre de notre semaine spéciale de replay [Genre & alimentation], (re)écoutez l'épisode [#12 - journalisme culinaire engagé : les femmes ont-elles le monopole ? Avec Camille Labro, Elvira Masson et Estérelle Payany].Depuis les années 70, des théoriciens, souvent anglosaxons, se sont intéressés à la place des femmes dans les luttes environnementales. C'est ce que l'on appelle couramment « l'écoféminisme ». Ce mouvement fait alors le parallèle entre l'oppression de la nature et l'oppression des femmes. Les deux seraient dû à notre système patriarcale. Dans cet écoféminisme, il y a tout une partie relative à l'alimentation. La mère nourricière serait aussi celle qui protège, celle qui se bat pour une alimentation saine et écologique.C'est de cette thématique que nous allons discuter aujourd'hui à travers le prisme journalistique : les femmes ont-elles le monopole de l'engagement en matière de journalisme culinaire ? Dans cet épisode, nous interrogeons les liens entre féminisme et alimentation/cuisine/gastronomie durable.Pour en parler, nous avons reçu 3 journalistes de renom : Camille Labro, Elvira Masson et Estérelle Payany.***Pour nous soutenir : - Abonnez-vous à notre podcast ;- Donnez votre avis en mettant des étoiles et des commentaires sur votre plateforme d'écoute préférée ;- Parlez d'Écotable et de son podcast autour de vous ;- Allez manger dans nos restaurants vertueux et délicieux ! ***Écotable est une entreprise dont la mission est d'accompagner les acteurs du secteur de la restauration dans leur transition écologique.

➡ CLICK HERE to send me a text, I'd love to hear what you thought about this episode! Leave your name in the text so I know who it's from! Another week, another inspiring Milwaukee woman. Today on the podcast, I am excited to introduce my dear friend Nell and the story behind her departure from Milwaukee's culinary scene where she was (and still is) revered as a friend, mentor, connector, go-getter and all around STAR. But in 2019, she made the decision to pivot out of the food industry and into a new life. So far this season, I've talked to women who have pivoted INTO something - and we've focused on where they ended up. But I wanted to bring on a woman who could speak to us about pivoting OUT of something as well. (though where she pivots is equally as interesting, and we DO talk about that, too). It's equally as brave to decide to leave a career, especially if (and when) you're at the pinnacle of your place in the industry, like Nell. Nell was also my collaborator on the Wilcuma Dinner for the Hanan Refugees Relief Group last week. You can find out more about the dinner on the segment on TMJ4 here!Locals and Links: Want to work with Nell, here is her web page at Shorewest RealtorsWant to check out her cookbook on Ramen, here it is at BoswellIf you enjoyed this episode, be sure to check out the episode with Lori Fredrich, Food Writer for OnMilwaukee.com HERE, or wherever you get your podcasts! Show your love for Cream City DreamsIf you haven't already, be sure to follow Cream City Dreams on Facebook and Instagram.

Another adventure beckons!On today's episode we are travelling to South America and explore the connection between food and revolution! Food always of course played a part in the prosperity of the common people and the nation as a whole. The balance in South America was and still is more precarious in what it means for the people to have control of the means and distribution of their sustenance. What is the national food that needs to be seen to be abundant to all strata of the society?For that reason I enlisted the ever knowledgable Dr Alessandra Pino to explain this to me while eating some arepas, the national dish of her homeland of Venezuela!Dr. Alessandra Pino is an expert in the intersections of the Gothic, food, and cultural memory.

My newsletter: https://simonowens.substack.com/   When Matthew Schniper launched his Colorado Springs food newsletter in 2023, he ran into a problem many local news entrepreneurs face: he didn't have enough time to do his reporting and chase down advertisers.   Luckily, by that point he already had strong relationships in the Colorado Springs food scene, and so he approached 12 of his favorite restaurants with an interesting proposition: if they came on as annual sponsors, he would go above and beyond to feature them in his newsletter, and he wouldn't allow any other local businesses to advertise. This allowed him to focus on his reporting and not waste time on sales calls. The experiment was so successful that over half of the restaurants have already renewed for a second year.   In a recent interview, Matthew explained how he came up with the idea, what services he provides for these 12 restaurants, and why he thinks his model can be replicated by other local news startups.

Nigel is the first podcast guest ever to make me cry. I'm a big fan of his writing, and suspected he'd be a kindred spirit, but spending the day with him in his house was an overwhelming experience I wasn't prepared for.He lives around the corner from where I grew up, in a pared-back way that feels very familiar. In this remarkably honest conversation, he outlines the essential role his home plays in keeping him on an even keel. We discuss what it's like to suffer from panic attacks, and how they're triggered by the built environment. He tells me that whenever he arrives in a building he hasn't been to before, the first thing he does is check where the exit is so that he can plan his escape. We touch on the childhood trauma that he wrote about in his brilliant memoir, Toast, from his mother's death to his father's bullying. We discuss the roots of his lifelong interest in gardening, why he keeps a daily diary, and the importance of smell within the home. This is a conversation I'll remember forever. Thank you, Nigel.

How does a Tax Preparer from Minnesota end up moving his family to a little village in the French Countryside end up becoming an award-winning food writer and publishing his memoir about the experience with a big-time book publisher?    Today's guest Steve Hoffman's story is so unlikely. Back in 2012, Steve dreamed of living in France with images of swimming in the ocean on the coast and then sipping with a wonderful glass of Rosé. The reality was that he brought his wife and two children to a hard-working, hot and dusty winemaking village. No one spoke English. To say the beginning of this adventure was rocky is a understatement.  Once Steve and his family stepped back and let their French experience evolve on its own, it was transformative. It's all shared in his memoir, "A Season for That, Lost and Found in the Other Southern France".  Steve still lives two lives. For 6 months a year, he runs his self-stated "boring" job of tax preparation that pays well and the other half of the year is devoted to his creative life, winning a James Beard M.F.K. Fisher Distinguished Writing Award. • More about Steve Hoffman: https://www.sjrhoffman.com/ • Steve's book "A Season for That": http://tiny.cc/z37uzz • Episode Content:  https://pickleballmediahq.com/blog/Steve-Hoffman-Interview-Food-Writer-and-Author-of-French-Countryside-Experience • Sponsored by How to Retire and Not Die:  https://garysirak.com/how-to-retire-and-not-die/ • Sponsored by Capital Advantage:  https://capitaladvantage.com/promotion/retirement-planning-guide/ • I Used to be Somebody World Tour:  https://pickleballmediahq.com/tour/ • Subscribe to the I Used to be Somebody newsletter:  https://pickleballmediahq.com/contact/subscribe

We really, really love what Rob Martinez is doing on YouTube and TikTok. Rob is behind the voice and visuals of Eating With Robert, a delightful series of dispatches from restaurants around the world. As we find out in this interview, Rob has a film background and started his own feed as a way of highlighting his favorite New York City pizzerias, diners, Egyptian fish grills, and Turkish kebab sellers. Rob is doing the work, scouting and shooting the types of places journalists like Jonathan Gold, Ligaya Mishan, and Robert Sietsema became famous for writing about. Rob is as much of a “food writer” as any of us in the industry, and it was cool to learn about his approach, and some of his favorite places around the world.Also on the show, it's the return of Three Things where Aliza and Matt discuss what is exciting in the world of restaurants, cookbooks, and the food world as a whole. On this episode: The re-opening of Brooklyn's Kellogg's Diner in Brooklyn, Lola's is one of our favorite new NYC restaurants, Famille du Vin canned wines are so good (and shoutout to Leitz Eins Zwei Zero Non-Alcoholic Sparkling Riesling too), Eater LA published a terrific package of stories about the new restaurant influencers, and how TikTok is transforming Los Angeles's dining scene one swipe at a time. Also, some thoughts on the new New York Chinatown restaurant Bridges, and we finally made it to Yang's Kitchen in the San Gabriel Valley and it totally delivers.Take our listener survey!
