I'm delighted to welcome Mary Thompson onto the podcast today to talk about gluten free sourdough and her new book. I also talk about my new sourdough starter, Stephanie, some food newsletters I'm subscribed to and enjoying, Georgian food (the country not the state) and what NOT to eat in London! - Kate Website: flourbuttereggssugar.com Find us on Facebook and Instagram.

In this episode, Kate talks about 5 of the best things she ate on a recent visit to Slovenia and three good biscuits (cookies) to send in a care package, at a bake sale, or just to eat... Ukrainian curd cheese biscuits with crunchy sugar; soft cocoa and vanilla abbracci (hugs); and crunchy vegan chocolate biscuits.

In this episode, I'm valiantly trying to use up the serious quantities of black cocoa I bought online! Luckily, it is very nice stuff, adding an intense chocolate flavour to everything as well as that dramatic colour. I talk about four bakes: Edd Kimber's chocolate sablé biscuits, The River Cottage's chocolate pear cake, a sophisticated chocolate tahini shortbread and Dorie Greenspan's World Peace Cookies with freeze dried raspberries.

In this episode, I give a run down of SEVEN* gluten-free cakes that are not just my favourite gluten free cakes but among my favourite all-time cakes full stop. We have spoken about four of them before: Torta Caprese, Chocolate Swiss Roll, Pistachio and Raspberry Meringue Cake, Claudia Roden's Whole Orange Cake. Three of them are new to the podcast: Nigella's Chocolate Olive Oil Cake, Valeria Necchio's Torta di Nocciole (Hazelnut Cake) with Lemon Swiss Meringue Buttercream, Rukmini Iyer's Tarta de Santiago. 3/7 of these cakes also happen to be dairy free. I'm on a mission to convince you that gluten free cakes may in many cases actually be better than cakes with gluten or wheat flour. 

*(not six as I say in the episode - actually seven. I seem to have forgotten how to count)
