Podcasts about kitchen science

In the first episode of this third season of the Salmon Pink Kitchen podcast, Irene and Margaux welcome writer and cook Rebecca May Johnson. With Rebecca, we returned to the basics of tomato sauce, cooking together over Zoom as we talked about documenting home cooking, Rebecca's 10-year old dinner document blog, which has just been turned into a Substack, and her upcoming memoir Small Fires: An Epic in the Kitchen, which will be published by Pushkin Press in August 2022. You can pre-order your copy here or from your favourite indie. ‘Cooking is thinking,' as Rebecca says, and in this moving conversation we discussed the marks we leave and the revolutions that can start from the kitchen. We can't wait for you to join us at the hob. Some news! Our very own Margaux Vialleron has written a novel (!!!). The Yellow Kitchen will be published by Simon & Schuster on 7th July 2022 and you can pre-order your copy from your favourite bookshops and retailers! Recommendations from today's episode:Small Fires: An Epic in the Kitchen by Rebecca May JohnsonSubstack: dinner document by Rebecca May JohnsonThe Alice B.

Opportunities for science experiments are all around us! Dr. Ryan joins us this week to talk through some fun and easy experiments we can do with our kiddos using things found in the kitchen! I learned so much and have changed my thinking about how to present science concepts to kids. This episode was so fun and in the words of Dr. Ryan, "Kids of all ages can do science and math activities with things that you have in the home! Even cooking and snack time can be used to learn STEM concepts!" Thanks for listening!

Kia Ora! You may be aware that Jono has an irrational fear of peaches, no joke. But turns out that he's not the only one with an irrational fear of fruit... On the topic of eating, we also debated whether "serviette" or "napkin" sounds posher! We were joined by Dr Michelle Dickinson AKA Nanogirl who has a new TV show out on TVNZ on Demand called Kitchen Science, with kid friendly recipes! Finally, Jono discovered he is more self-centred than he thought. Enjoy the pod & your weekend, stay safe out there!

In the concluding installment of our two-part season finale of Naked Oceans, we get a bit thoughtful and contemplate what might lie in store for the future of the oceans. Helen catches up with some of the marine experts we've heard from throughout the last two series and asks them about what they think the future might hold. Are they ocean optimists or pessimists? What solutions will be needed to protect the oceans of the future? And on a more positive note, we ponder what great ocean discoveries might lie ahead.
