Three Kitchens Podcast

Send us a text This week on Three Kitchens Podcast, Erin finds inspiration in a book she's reading to try a delicious sheet pan kebab recipe. She also makes flatbread, a quick salad and tahina sauce to make this an easy weeknight meal. If you're thinking kebabs on skewers, you'd be wrong (as Heather found out). For these kebabs, Erin mixed ground beef with a blended veggie mixture, and spread it on a baking sheet. Ten minutes in the oven, and you're ready to go. The salad is simply red onion and tomatoes with salted lemon and sumac. The tahina sauce is tahini and water -- so simple! All together in a wrap, this is quick, healthy and so tasty.

Send us a text In this episode Heather tries an alternative to oatmeal -- a hot farro breakfast pudding with cardamom and dates. It's warm and sweet and just hits the spot, especially on a cold winter morning. Thanks for joining us for this episode of Three Kitchens Podcast! Originating in the Middle East, farro is an ancient grain has long been a staple of Mediterranean dishes. Its mild flavour and chewy texture provide an alternative for other grains like rice or barley in soups and stews. In this case, we're thinking of it like a substitute for oats for breakfast. It's cooked in almond milk (or you can sub milk of your choice) with sweet dates and flavoured with vanilla and cardamom. We enjoyed this sprinkled with a little crunchy granola. Heather paired this with a homemade cup of spiced chai. It would also be perfectly paired with a latte or other hot beverage of your choice. Make a big pot of farro pudding in advance and warm it up for breakfast with a variety of toppings, like granola, nuts or yogurt for everyone to customize their bowl.

Send us a text Get ready to nerd out with your favourite podcast hosts in this Food for Thought episode! Erin explores a study showing that early humans were eating carbs before their teeth were able to chew them. What impact did the food early humans ate have on the teeth we have today? The carbohydrates (grains) available at the time required a lot of chewing, which means these early humans recognized this as a high-energy food source, despite not having teeth to properly chew them. The study shows it actually took about 700,000 more years before the size and shape of human teeth were actually suited to eating this food. Cool, right? Erin, with her background in science, helps tell the story of this research by explaining evolution. Then she goes down a bit of a rabbit hole about wisdom teeth and changes we see in present day humans and our teeth and jaws today.

Send us a text In this episode Erin takes a familiar packet of dry ramen noodles and elevates it with a simple broth made with inexpensive items you probably already have in your pantry. We enjoy a simple bowl of noodles as much as the next person, and you cannot argue there are days when this cheap simple dish is about all we can manage. But, by using a few common pantry items -- peanut butter, coconut milk, miso paste -- you can kick it up to a new level of flavour. Erin also made up some toppings, including a fantastic marinated chicken breast and a perfect jammy boiled egg. She'll help us plan this out to make some things ahead (including the broth) and have them ready to top off those noodles in no time. Get the recipe!

Send us a text This week on the podcast, Heather discovers one of the best cookies we've ever eaten. That's not an exaggeration. Let's get into it. These Chocolate Mascarpone Coffee Cookies are so easy to bake - measure all your cookie dough ingredients in one bowl with a kitchen scale and stir with a wooden spoon. You then just chill, scoop and bake. Easy peasy. The unique ingredient (in our experience) is mascarpone cheese in the cookie dough. The filling is the key here - mascarpone cheese, butter, powdered sugar, vanilla and espresso powder makes this the most delicious frosting ever put between two chocolate cookies. So. Damn. Good. Have we adequately expressed how much we love these cookies yet? We also get into a discussion about natural vs Dutch processed cocoa powder, because the recipe specifically says to use natural cocoa NOT Dutch processed. It's a whole thing and we do try to sort it out. But at the end of the day, we believe you can use whichever cocoa powder you've got on hand. You just cannot fail with these cookies. Get the recipe!

Send us a text This episode is dedicated to the art of baking beautiful pies and tarts, just in time for the holidays! We welcome Laura Klynstra, author of The Homemade Pie Cookbook, to share tips and ideas for kicking our baking game up a notch. We get straight into asking Laura all our many questions about achieving the perfect base for our holiday desserts. Whether you love to use butter, shortening, or even lard, the important thing is to leave your fat a little chunky to create those flaky layers in your pie crust. If you prefer a rustic look and feel, a galette might be more your style. Hot tip: bake it in a cast iron skillet to avoid the mess if the filling leaks out of the pastry. When it comes to decorating the top of your pies and tarts, prepare your toppings in advance but wait to finish it off just before you serve it. Try adding cookies, fruit, caramel sauce or piped whipped cream to design your beautiful creations. We made Laura's recipe for a Raspberry Linzer Tart. This delicious dessert is based on a Linzer cookie, and is a beautiful tart to serve this holiday season. Get the Raspberry Linzer Tart recipe.

Send us a text This week on Three Kitchens Podcast, we do one of our favourite things: explore an ingredient we've never used before. This time it's the Tamarind fruit. Erin uses it to make four fun recipes: Tamarind Spiced Muffins - these required a second batch, as the first time around we didn't love them. But you can count on Erin to get back to the kitchen and sort out this recipe. We LOVED them! Tamarind Chicken Wings - hoo boy, did we love these wings. They're now making a regular appearance at Erin's family wing night. SO. GOOD. Tamarind & Red Onion Rice - This recipe makes it easy to take your rice side dish to the next level. While you're cooking your rice, create this delicious mixture and combine everything right before you serve it. Pineapple & Tamarind Mixer - Up your mixed drink game with this sweet & sour mixer that will refresh and delight your tastebuds. Make the components ahead of time from fresh ingredients and keep them in the fridge to stir up this tasty drink in a jiffy. Heather confirms it's fantastic with tequila too.

Send us a text This week on the show, Heather makes a family-favourite, a Tortière Canadienne. This delicious French-Canadian meat pie is something we enjoy at Christmas, but you can make it any time you like. Heather combined a couple of recipes -- one from the cookbook, Eat Alberta First (Karen Anderson), and a recipe handed down to her by her mom. This recipe, which you can find on our website (link below!), makes two full pies. If you don't want to eat two full pies, you can prep one and freeze it to bring out later (just thaw before baking). The key to a Tortière, in our opinion, is the spice combination: One other note about a fantastic Tortière is the pie crust. Heather made this one with lard and even Erin, pie baker extraordinaire, thought it was a damn good pie crust. We call this a win all around! Tortière Canadienne recipe.

Send us a text In this episode Erin and Heather chat with Chef Colleen Cackowski, co-author of the book, The Diabetes-Free Cookbook and Exercise Guide. Colleen shares her approach to creating delicious and satisfying type two Diabetes-friendly recipes, and her tips for introducing changes to our diet that can contribute to healthy blood sugar levels. We also try one of the recipes from the book - Dijon Salmon with Capers. This recipe is so easy you can add it to your busy weeknight dinner rotation. Serve with a generous helping of veggies to satisfy even the picky eaters (the kids in our families ate this up). Whether you're interested in learning more about cooking for Diabetes or simply being as healthy as you can be, this book offers great recipes and lots of helpful information on healthy diet and exercise. Please remember, we are podcasters talking about food, and sometimes, how it relates to our health. Don't take anything we or our guests talk about as medical advice. Always consult your doctor.

Send us a text This episode is a joint effort to give you two ideas for pull-apart style yeast breads, one sweet and one savoury. Heather brings the pumpkin pull-apart bread using a fold method to create a loaf that easily pulls apart to reveal a gooey pumpkin filling. Erin makes savoury garlic pull-apart dinner rolls baked in a cast iron pan. This one will impress your dinner guests - it's so pretty! We had some ideas for improvement. The garlic buns were really big and we suggest making two pans of smaller buns. As for the pumpkin, baking in a loaf pan seemed a little tight and the centre wasn't as well-baked as it could be, so we think a cake pan would work better. But overall, we love these two options for pull-apart breads!

Send us a text Introducing a new episode format for season 6: Food for Thought! This one is a foray into Kitchen Witchery, just in time for Halloween. In the Food for Thought series we are talking about whatever we feel like getting into -- it might be a news story, history, trend or science -- always with some connection to food. It's not a deep dive, but just enough for you to sound interesting at your next family dinner. Kitchen witchery (see also kitchen divination) is the practice of fortune telling and spell casting using food, or performed during the act of cooking and baking. Reading tea leaves might be one of the most commonly known practices, but are you familiar with cromniancy, ovamancy, or tyromancy? Come along and learn a little about each of these in this Food for Thought episode. And don't miss the end, when Heather attempts to read Erin's fortune in brie cheese. You read that right. Kitchen witchery is also as simple as cooking with intention. Ever heard of adding love into your dishes? Cooking and baking with gratitude, focus and intention? You may already be practicing kitchen witchery! Learn more about Tyromancy from Jennifer Billock.

Send us a text This is a fun one! Erin tries her hand at making mochi ice cream for a birthday celebration, this week on Three Kitchens Podcast. Mochi ice cream is a Japanese dessert made of a small scoop of ice cream encased in a soft, chewy, sweet rice cake called mochi. The mochi provides a unique, stretchy texture, while the ice cream offers flavour and creaminess. Think of it like a dessert dumpling. You can choose the ice cream flavours you love the most, and surprise your friends and family when they bite into their mochi ice cream. If it's your first time making mochi ice cream (as it was for Erin as well), take advantage of Erin's tips and tricks based on her experience with the recipe.

Send us a text This week on Three Kitchens Podcast, we welcome Renu Bhardwaj, a UK-based food blogger and author of Celebrate Diwali: Recipes, Activities, and Crafts for the Entire Family. Celebrate Diwali includes crafts, celebration tips, and of course, recipes: delicious, accessible Indian dishes that blend tradition with a modern, family-friendly approach. Renu shares her memories of learning to cook alongside her mother, and the dishes that take her right back to those regular family dinners, and annual Diwali festivals. We make one of her favourites, chole bhatura. As Renu describes it in her book: "The irresistible combination of spiced chickpeas and puffy, deep-fried bread makes chole bhatura a cherished and very popular Punjabi dish, especially at Diwali. Chickpeas are simmered and infused with aromatics and spices, and the dough needs to rest before being fried to create the pillowy bhatura, so I reserve this for special occasions like Diwali. Chole bhatura is also sure to wow guests with its layers of flavors and textures, bringing a celebratory mood and an atmosphere of joy, gratitude, and togetherness—and that crisp, hot-from-the-pan bread always tempts me into a gratifying second helping." We enjoyed making (and eating!) chole bhatura at home. The chickpeas couldn't be easier, and while the bread will take a little practice, we recommend giving it a try. It's everything Renu says it is -- warm, comforting and worthy of going back in for seconds. Ask your local bookstore for Celebrate Diwali: Recipes, Activities, and Crafts for the Entire Family by Renu Bhardwaj , or grab your copy online at Indigo or Amazon. Follow Renu on Instagram here.

Send us a text Welcome to the first episode of season 6 of the podcast! We're starting off with a tiny little Turkish dumpling called Manti. Heather takes on the challenge of filling and folding these itty bitty tasty morsels, which are served with a garlic yogurt sauce and drizzled with chili butter. The dough for Manti is easy to make and rolls out nicely. That's a win because it needs to be very thin (about 3mm)! After cutting it into small squares (2 - 3 cm) and then placing a tiny bit of filling in each (our filling was ground beef and grated onion), you then fold them up, boil to cook and serve with the delicious sauces. Yes, we timed it and it took Heather about 12 sec to fold each dumpling! Be sure to check out our socials for video of the folding technique, or you can also see it on the video for this episode on YouTube.

Send us a text This week on the podcast, we're trying what is known as the unofficial national dish of the Philippines, Chicken Adobo. Let's get right into it. In Filipino cuisine, adobo refers to both a cooking method—a very acidic braise—and the class of dishes produced by that method. In the recipe we try, vinegar serves as the key ingredient in the marinade (which also becomes the sauce). The vinegar of your choice (in this case, two types) are combined with garlic, soy sauce and bay leaves. the chicken is marinaded and then slow cooked using a basic braising method and then served over coconut rice. It's quite simple to make and the perfect base to play with and make it your own. Switch up the vinegar, add herbs, and try different proteins if you want. It's delicious!

Send us a text This week on the podcast, Heather tries a recipe for Ginger Beef, the western Chinese dish originated in Calgary, Alberta. It's always high on our list of dishes to order when we eat Chinese, and we almost can't believe we've never tried making it at home. Let's put the recipe to the test and see if it's as good homemade as it is at the restaurant. According to our research, Ginger Beef was created by chef George Wong at his restaurant The Silver Inn in the early 1970s. Chef Wong knew the way to generate income was to sell more alcoholic beverages, so he created a recipe he thought would pair nicely with drinks. With British pub food as his inspiration, Ginger Beef was born. To this day, it is a very popular dish served in Canadian Chinese restaurants across Canada. For this recipe, steak is sliced thinly, battered and fried. A stir fry of julienned veggies is also made, along with the sauce, and then it's all tossed together. The key here is to let it all sit and soak up the sauce. Oh, and of course, the star ingredient is LOTS of ginger included in the julienned veggies. Heather had some difficulty getting the beef crispy -- the recipe didn't specify a temp for the frying oil, which may have been the problem. But the flavours here were spot on. This recipe tastes perfectly like our favourite ginger beef. Give it a try! You'll love it.

Send us a text This week on Three Kitchens Podcast, we’re diving into Canadian food history with special guest Kesia Kvill, a Canadian food historian with a passion for community, sustainability and youth mentorship. Kesia is a Community Engagement manager at a heritage organization in Edmonton, Alberta. She’s been a chief curator at the largest living history museum in Canada and started her museum career as a demonstration volunteer at an agricultural museum before getting her first museum interpreter and tour guide job. Her academic studies focused on Canadian foodways, public history, and rural history. Together, we explore the question: What is Canadian food, really? It’s a layered and evolving story that begins with the rich culinary traditions of Indigenous peoples, and continues through waves of settler and immigrant influences that have shaped kitchens across the country. From food production to community celebrations, we talk about how cooking and eating have always brought people together. Kesia shares insights into how food has always been more than just sustenance—it’s tradition, identity, and connection. We also dive into a historical recipe from the Five Roses Cook Book (1915): a Burnt Sugar Cake that sparked both curiosity and cravings! Join us for a delicious conversation full of history, heritage, and a bit of burnt sugar. And trust us when we say, you will want to bake this cake!
