July 25, 2013 Episode 96: Pasta Shapes
This is the show that you’ve been waiting for, in which we determine, once and for all, the best pasta shape. Or not. Along the way, Matthew continues his love affair with penne rigate, Molly makes Italians roll their eyes and groan, and we voice some strong opinions (surprise, surprise!) about saucing pasta. Roll up your slappy sleeves and dig in.

July 11, 2013 Episode 95: Salmon
It’s July in Seattle, and that means one thing: salmon. We’ve been noodlin' around in the river with Brad Pitt, losing fingers and catching dinner, and now we're sharing our favorite ways to cook and eat our favorite local fish. (Though, no, you still can't have any.) spilledmilkpodcast.com

June 27, 2013 Episode 94: Croissants
In this flaky, buttery episode, Molly and Matthew pull apart the culinary conundrum that is a croissant. How did the croissant conquer the world when it's so hard to make? We're still not sure, but we’re willing to eat four croissants for lunch in order to find out. We investigate butter slabs, shoeboxes, Costco, and Pillsbury crescent rolls on our way to enlightenment.www.spilledmilkpodcast.com

June 13, 2013 Episode 93: Jam
What's your jam? Our jam is jam. Strawberry, gooseberry, tayberry, damson...but grape? Not so much. We taste a bunch of jams on toast and have a Smucking good time doing it. spilledmilkpodcast.com

May 30, 2013 Episode 92: Buckwheat
Surprisingly little talk of Eddie Murphy on this buckwheat-centric episode. Buckwheat for dinner? Yes! For dessert? Yes! As a hearty, toasted breakfast cereal? Well, how Dickensian do you want to get? Recipes: Kasha, Buckwheat Waffles, Nibby Buckwheat Butter Cookies, Soba with Peanut-Citrus Sauce, Buckwheat Pancakes. spilledmilkpodcast.com
Kasha Breakfast PorridgeBuckwheat wafflesNibby Buckwheat Butter Cookies‎Soba with Peanut-Citrus SauceThe New Steak
BUCKWHEAT PANCAKES
2/3 cup unbleached all-purpose flour1/3 cup buckwheat flour2 tsp. granulated sugar½ tsp. salt½ tsp. baking powder¼ tsp. baking soda¾ cup buttermilk¼ cup plus 2 Tbsp. milk (preferably not low- or nonfat)1 large egg, separated2 Tbsp. unsalted butter, melted and cooled slightlyVegetable oil or more melted butter, for greasing the griddlePure maple syrup, for serving
In a large bowl, whisk together the flours, sugar, salt, bakingpowder, and baking soda. Set aside.
Pour the buttermilk and milk into a medium bowl. Whisk the egg whiteinto the milk mixture. In a small bowl, use a fork to beat the yolkwith the melted butter. Stir the yolk mixture into the milk mixture.Pour the wet ingredients into dry ingredients all at once, and whiskuntil just combined. Do not overmix.
Meanwhile, heat a large skillet or griddle – preferably nonstick oranodized aluminum – over medium-high heat. Brush the skilletgenerously with oil or melted butter. To make sure it’s hot enough,wet your fingers and sprinkle a few droplets of water onto the pan.If they sizzle, you’re ready to go.
Ladle the batter in scant ¼-cupfuls into the skillet, making sure notto overcrowd. When the bottom side of the pancakes is nicely brownedand the top starts to bubble and look set around the edges, about 2 to3 minutes, flip the pancakes. Cook until the second side has browned,about 1 to 2 minutes more.
Re-oil the skillet and repeat for the next batch of pancakes. If youfind that they are browning too quickly in subsequent batches, dialthe heat back to medium.
Serve the pancakes warm, with maple syrup.
Yield: 8-10 pancakes

May 16, 2013 Episode 91: Airplane Food
Ever since airlines stopped serving meals on domestic flights, comedians have had nothing to talk about. That didn't stop us from having a rollicking discussion of what to bring on the plane, snacks served on the plane, and why Molly and Matthew are odoriferously unwelcome on planes. www.spilledmilkpodcast.com

May 02, 2013 Episode 90: Milk
Finally, an episode about our namesake. Molly and Matthew mustache their way through quarts of milk. We sidestep the raw milk debate and cow vs goat, but we take a strong position on chunky vs creamy. Moo. www.spilledmilkpodcast.com

April 18, 2013 Episode 89: Onions
If there are no onions involved, is it really cooking? Molly's Polish grandmother says no. If you don't have a Polish grandmother, this episode makes a good substitute. Molly and Matthew peel back the layers, have a good cry, talk shopping and chopping, and basically treat the supermarket onion display like their personal ball crawl. Recipes: Onion Tart, Supper Onion Pie. EXPLICIT. spilledmilkpodcast.com

April 04, 2013 Episode 88: Bitter Greens
How does a chicory root become a bunch of tightie whities? What can broccoli rabe teach us about Matthew’s masculinity? And if you close your eyes, can you taste the difference between escarole and radicchio? If you’re mad keen for bitter greens, this is the episode for you. Recipes: Sauteed Radicchio and Escarole, Molly Stevens’s Braised Endive with Prosciutto. spilledmilkpodcast.com

March 21, 2013 Episode 87: Potato Chips
Molly and Matthew taste four classic chips, with surprising results. As you might expect, this episode consists entirely of crunching and made-up potato chip slogans. Are O'Boisies really o'boisterous? We're not sure, because they don't make them anymore. spilledmilkpodcast.com
