Description

Every week on Spilled Milk, writers/comedians Molly Wizenberg and Matthew Amster-Burton start with a food-related topic, from apples to winter squash, and run with it as far as they can go—and, regrettably, sometimes further.

Episode 747: Pastrami
2026/04/23
Beep Beep! We're flying the friendly skies to Pastrami Land via Rye Air and hope to avoid blowouts along the way. We learn how babies are made and how cult leaders are killed as we attempt to list out Romanian facts before meeting Grandma Sycamore. Then we land on some creative storage solutions and solicit listeners' signature sandwiches. Huang Fei Hong Spicy Peanuts Support Spilled Milk Podcast!

Episode 746: Pickled Ginger
2026/04/16
After assigning yet another segment theme song to Producer Abby, M &M recount sushi experiences both childish and VERY adult. They wonder about the color red, the concept that is Mr Etymology and the tenets of post-modernism before deciding to avoid haunted floor plans altogether.   Character referenced: 紅 Matthew's Now but Wow - Strange Pictures, by Uketsu   Support Spilled Milk Podcast!

Episode 745: Vinaigrette
2026/04/09
Today we tackle these countertop jars as we lose interest in birthdays and deliver inside jokes to subscribers only. We deal with dressings, Blink 002 and a brand new special guest who oozes everywhere before declaring that ignorance is bliss. Through emulsifiers and polarities we finally decide on our vinaigrette boundaries even as we deny mustard its due.   Matthew's Salmon Cucumber dish 4 salmon fillets, about 8 ounces each, skin on Salt and pepper to taste 4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil, divided 1 English cucumber, halved, seeded and cut on the diagonal into half-moons 1 shallot, thinly sliced 1/4 cup red-wine vinegar 2 teaspoons sugar 2 scallions, white parts only, thinly sliced 1 teaspoon yellow mustard seeds 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar 1. Preheat the oven to 500 degrees. Season the salmon with salt and pepper on both sides. Put 1 tablespoon olive oil into a 12-inch ovenproof skillet and place over high heat until oil is shiny. 2. Add the salmon fillets to the pan, skin side up. Sear one minute. Flip the fillets and transfer the pan to the oven. Roast until medium rare, 6 to 8 minutes (you can check for doneness by peeking between the flakes). 3. While fish is roasting, place the cucumbers in a bowl and add the shallot, remaining 3 tablespoons olive oil, vinegar, sugar, scallions and mustard seeds. Season with salt and pepper and toss well. 4. Divide the cucumbers evenly among four plates. Place a salmon fillet, skin side up, on top of each portion of cucumbers. Drizzle with balsamic vinegar and serve.   Support Spilled Milk Podcast!

Episode 744: Sandwich Crackers
2026/04/02
Today we encounter high pitched flavors as we taste the brioche of crackers. We name the world's greatest toy and crown a new PEFP as we endure chemical tangs, frissons of danger and failed musical analogies. After some homespun tales and an exciting Spilled Mail, we burst into song yet again even though we hate musicals because it is other people who burst into song. Support Spilled Milk Podcast!

Episode 743: Corned Beef Sandwiches
2026/03/26
Hey buddies! We're coming to you from medieval times with yet another sandwich episode. As we spend wooden nickels on our favorite carousel rides we second guess our movie knowledge before letting slip a giant reveal about Mr. Etymology. Then we let listeners in on a live comedy workshopping session before finally succumbing to the meat sleepies.   Episode 7 Irish Spring   Matthew's Corned Beef Recipe  Rub the brisket all over with lots of kosher salt and spices of your choice. Matthew uses: Black pepper, coriander, cinnamon, allspice, ground ginger, mustard seeds, crushed red pepper, fresh garlic, brown sugar,, and crushed bay leaves. MSG is also a good idea and I used some.Rub the brisket all over, including any crevices, and put it in one of those big 2- or 2.5 gallon zipper bags. Put it in a sheet pan or casserole pan and stick it in the fridge.Flip it over daily for a week, rinse and pat it dry, and it’s ready to cook! You can also freeze it at this point.Then braise it for a few hours until tender, and slice.Matthew's Now but Wow! - Automatic Noodle, Annalee Newitz   Support Spilled Milk Podcast!

Episode 742: Iodized Salt
2026/03/19
We are burning the midnight oil to bring you one more thing to worry about, goiters. We meet some French chemists and give ourselves a totally achievable goal for 2026 as we decide to let them eat caviar. After a visit to The Goiter Belt we address our own snobbery and delusional taste buds before tackling crystalline structures and musician magicians.   Molly's Now but Wow! - Fela Kuti: Fear No Man: podcast Support Spilled Milk Podcast!

Episode 741: Pork Tenderloin Sandwich
2026/03/12
We're coming to you live from Matthew's ruined kitchen to discuss a breaded and fried meat sandwich created with great pounding force. (so. much. pounding.)

Episode 740: Solo Travel
2026/03/05
Today we're alone together as we take listeners along our solo travels to Paris, Tokyo, Rome, Lisbon and Bainbridge Island with Special Guest Producer Abby. While HOTPOTS walks alone we discuss loneliness, crying and experiments in small talk before realizing that there is a fine line between crazy and astute. Through whims and wandering we follow sage advice from WOTSL and share how much better jet lag and eating out solo can be because we are never irritated with ourselves.   Episode 651: Cast Iron Skillet with Michele Norris Airalo Saily Molly's Posts on Traveling Alone Part 1Part 2Part 3Producer Abby's Newsletter Matthew's Now but Wow - De La Soul, Cabin in the Sky   Support Spilled Milk Podcast!

Episode 739: Condiment Packets
2026/02/26
Today we tackle Matthew's fears, hoop houses and micro tubules as we taste these tiny format condiments. After our two musical hating hosts spontaneously burst into song, they ask when, where and why do we eat these? will it packet? and is it worth its weight? With some prudish notions and shlunks, sploots, shloops and stomps food drowning becomes inevitable.   Minimus.biz Condiments in Space Episode 682: Ranch Dressing Molly's Now but Wow! - A Burning, by Megha Majumdar Don't Drown Your Food Video Support Spilled Milk Podcast!

Episode 738: Japanese Pickles
2026/02/19
We're switching things up for Producer Abby's birthday and thank ourselves before secrets are revealed.

Episode 737: Refrigerated Cakes
2026/02/12
Alright, whether you are in a closet or in Tokyo let's clear the air here with some sold cold, easy treats. We get deep into history and call Mr. Etymology on his vacation to taste 12 cool cakes and debate The Useless Pumpkins. I'll tell you right now, if you don't like the word 'moist' you aren't going to like this episode because M & M taste opera cakes, cheese cakes, cream cakes, tree cakes and tea cakes before naming their favorite glycerides, bugbears and jingle hits finally ending the episode with a brazen bowl selection.   JustOneCookbook Castella Cake       Support Spilled Milk Podcast!

Episode 736: Dubai Chocolate
2026/02/05

Episode 735: Puff Pastry
2026/01/29
Have you met Matthew? Today we're looking for Epiphany in chippy boats, laminated layers and soggy shards. We ask 'what this stuff is?' as we endure another Mr. Etymology drop by and WAY too much math. We end by declaring our legacy and our intentions to buy a sheeter before receiving a very pithy Spilled Mail.   Dressler Parsons two part series on puff pastry Episode 94: Croissants Molly Wizenberg's wikipedia page Twilight Diners Matthew's Now but Wow: The Divine Comedy, Rainy Sunday Afternoon.

Episode 734: Rice Krispie Treats
2026/01/22
Today we ask How a Rice Krispie Treat is like a glue gun? and What does LCM stand for? as we taste chewy, crispy congealed goop.

Episode 733: Hot Sandwiches
2026/01/15
Today we're in the mind of a sandwich but memory lane keeps yanking us back. We face our fears of odorous funk as we share our hot takes on various hot sandwiches.
