Episodes

  1. Chicken: Brined & Fried

    In our first episode of this second season I take a positive look at a favorite recipe! I might have discussed it before but this time I reflect on it positively!

  2. Six Thanksgivings

    The holiday that drives beleaguered cooks to drink.

  3. The Volume

    Less food more reflection

  4. The Why

    Prompted by a surge of finickiness while cooking Saturday dinner for my kids.

  5. The Reason

    Reflecting as to the chicken and the egg of being a Finicky Chef. Who What Where When How Why?

  6. The Cake

    It languished for years until we decided to attempt it. Please welcome two Lucilles to the pod today to discuss this cooking debacle.

  7. The Cinnamon Rolls

    My daughter wanted to make cinnamon rolls. Every recipe I found required multiple hours for the dough to rise. Then I found one that was quick.

  8. The Fried Chicken

    Not just plain ol’ fashion fried chicken, no! In order to reach peak finicky I had to throw a lot of different things into the mix!

  9. The Simple Dish

    A recipe with four ingredients. Sounds so simple, right?

  10. The Gnocchi

    A tale of three pastas. What do they all have in common, besides a Finicky Chef? Take a listen to find out.

  11. The Tofu Cheesecake

    A recipe designed to impress instead took a hard left

  12. The Original Error

    What set me on this path of food based errors? Where did it all go wrong? Was it always a pathway full of obstacles? I think I know what the original error was and I know just the person to ask to find out!

  13. The Chili

    Following a recipe from a cookbook for an animated program isn’t as easy as you’d think.

  14. The Baked Pasta

    Three ingredients. Simple instructions. Success? WRONG! Find out why!

    Just a little snippet of what to expect in future episodes of the podcast!
