  • CARDOMON SPICE COOKIES REHEATED
    Jan 6 2026

    To sweeten your work day, Yumi has a shortbread recipe from one of her favourite cookbooks, and another hack if you're a HOME-MADE GRANOLA OBSESSIVE.

    The cookbook is PASS IT ON by Shobha Kalyan and Keryn Kalyan and it's out of print but you may be able to get a copy if you contact them via their Facebook.


    Cardamom Shortbread

    110g ghee, at room temp

    90g caster sugar

    2tsp ground cardamom

    50g pea flour

    50g fine semolina

    80g plain flour

    1/2 tsp baking powder

    shelled pistachios or peeled almonds to decorate

    Cream the ghee and sugar with the cardamom powder until light and fluffy. Sift everything else on top of the mixture and gently combine, taking care not to overmix.

    Roll 22 heaped teaspoons into balls and space out on an oven tray. Lightly dot a pistachio or almond in the middle of each biscuit.

    Bake in a pre-heated 160C oven for 20 minutes. Eat while driving!

  • WALNUT PESTO RAVIOLI REHEATED!
    Jan 4 2026

    In this reheated episode, Yumi gets somewhat misty-eyed about all the travel she's not doing but would like to, where IS the best place for food and eating?

    Meanwhile, you can get some nourishment with minimal stress making the following:


    WALNUT PESTO!

    100g walnuts

    garlic oil

    3 tbs chopped fresh rosemary

    50g grated Pecorino Romano

    4tbs walnut oil

    Serve on Rana Pasta! (Which Yumi famously misspells out loud during this episode, lol. ) Or whatever filled pasta you can get your hands on.

  • REHEATED: Tomato, Ponzu ...but this is really about the CRINGE CHIPS STORY
    Jan 1 2026

    We have to replay this episode because it's embarrassing and embarrassment is best shared.

    It's not every day that you get to interview an acclaimed and genuinely cool English author who can sell out rooms here in Australia... but that's what Yumi was doing (for one of her other jobs) when something DEEPLY CRINGE AND FOOD-RELATED occurred. You can hear all about it on this reheated episode! LOLSSSSS.


    You'll also hear about this SALAD - from an amazing website I use all the time.


    1 tomato

    2 tbs ponzu

    1 tbs toasted sesame seeds
