Seaweed for sale (notes on Episode 44)

mamster — Thu, 04 Aug 2011 14:11:32 +0000

Here are the seaweed products we tried during Episode 44. Check your local Asian grocery or natural foods store before buying online, because shipping is expensive and you should support your local hippies.

Japanese nori: Yamamotoyama Roasted Seaweed for Sushi

Korean salted laver: Sea's Gift Korean Seaweed Snack

Nori tsukudani: JFC Ajishima

Kombu: Eden Kombu

Kombu tsukudani: Simanoca Genki Goma Tsukudani (the commercial product is tasty but loaded with weird ingredients; consider making your own)

Furikake: JFC - Seto Fumi Furikake

More rice!

Matthew wrote a column for Culinate.com with more info on okowa, one of the rice dishes we made in Episode 40:

One-pot cooking: Sticky rice as a main dish

It's like a podcast, only written down.

We’re guests on Game Night Guys

Do we have a new show this week? No, we do not!

Can you hear half an hour of us anyway? Yes, you can!

We're guests on the delightful Game Night Guys. Brian and Mike made us play Foodie Fight, a trivia game where every question is very easy or very hard. Maybe that describes every trivia game. Check out the part where Matthew totally nails Madeleine Kamman. Wait, that didn't sound right.

Thanks to the Guys for having us on. Wait, that didn't sound right either.

Ramen we tasted in Episode 34

Nong Shim Gourmet Spicy
Myojo Chukazanmai, soybean paste flavor (available dried or frozen; the frozen is better)
Top Ramen, chicken flavor (we're guessing you don't need any help locating this one)

Live, live, live

Our first ever live taping is coming up, and you can be in the audience absolutely free. (Though if you want to brush-pass us a wad of 20s, we'll play along.)

When: July 29, 2010, 5:30pm
Where: Queen Anne Farmers Market, W Crockett & Queen Anne Ave N, Seattle
Why: Because you can watch us make total fools of ourselves in public.

Our comedy is certified organic, although some of our jokes should really be destroyed by unnatural means.

Message to the faithful

mamster — Sat, 03 Apr 2010 23:06:12 +0000

We've been on the road and are therefore behind on our responsibility to you, our beloved listeners. Do not fear. We'll have an all-new episode for you next week.

We’re featured in the mass media

The Seattle University Spectator did an article last week on Molly:

A local blogger's sweet success

Orangette exists as one of the zestiest food blogs around. Named last year by the Times of London as the number one food blog of 2009, creator Molly Wizenberg continues to dominate the Internet food scene from her home in Ballard.

Dominating the Internet food scene is no easy task. It requires a supercomputer with lots of wires coming out the top, various bunsen burners and beakers, and an evil laugh. And it requires a podcast: Spilled Milk is featured in the article! (P.S.: Despite what the article says, there is only one New York Times bestselling author associated with this show, and it's not Matthew. It's our mentor and executive producer, Dan Brown.)

Next order of business: if you look over in the sidebar, there's a "share on Facebook" button. This will let you post a link to the show as a Facebook status update. We also have a Facebook page where you can become a fan:

Spilled Milk on Facebook

Have you noticed that if you say "Facebook" a bunch of times, it doesn't sound like a word? Oh, wait, it's not. But become our fan anyway, because if we hit one thousand fans, executive producer Dan Brown will let us out of our subterranean offices to frolic, briefly, in the crisp winter air, like in that Ray Bradbury story.

Our next episode will be out Thursday, January 21, 2010. You will be thrilled and horrified to learn that Episode 2 is nearly twice as long as Episode 1, and it features a harrowing reenactment of the French revolution.
