S2E2 We are getting to the bottom of a question heard daily at Red Stick Spice Company: How do I use spices? Last week, Smidgen hosted Rosemary Gill from Milk Street for her take on using spices. In this episode, Smidgen host Anne Milneck speaks with producer Catherine O’Brien for Anne’s take on the how, when, and why of spices. The cooking segment brings it all home with a recipe that uses a surprising spice (well, surprising for a cookie) and utilizes a technique that will transform your baking. Cooking Segment: Anne and Lili Courtney prepare Molasses Cookies with Garam Masala in the Red Stick Spice Co. Test Kitchen. Mentioned on the show: Now Available: We’ve created The Essential Spice Starter Set to establish or refresh a pantry. This kit makes a perfect gift. RECIPE: Beautiful browned butter and Garam Masala create magic for Molasses Cookies in the cooking segment with Anne and Lili. Red Stick Spice Company is now a Milk Street Partner Location! Experience the Milk Street way at Red Stick Spice Company through one of our many classes. Make sure you listen to Anne’s conversation with Rosemary Gill in the premiere episode of Smidgen, Season 2.
