Ep. 4 - Tears of the Devil
from Nothin' But A Butter Tart Podcast · host Clippers
(0:00) We are talking today about that most contentious of butter tart debates: do raisins belong in butter tarts? My all-star line-up of guests includes Tom Baker, who has the enviable task of judging butter tarts at the big festival. After Tom breaks down some of the criteria of what makes a tart great and the uniqueness of ones he's tasted (0:45), we hear again from Barb Rowlandson with a great story on butter tarts leading to an economic revival (8:33) for Doodoo's Bakery, and then chat with the much-awarded baker herself, Diane Rogers (9:36). Since her tarts were sold out when I went to Midland, I decided to order some online to be shipped to my house (14:32) that I could sample with friends and family at the cottage (16:10).
