If sourdough feels confusing, intimidating, or like it secretly hates you, this one’s for you.

We’re talking starter drama, common mistakes, lazy baker shortcuts, and why your sourdough probably just needs a little patience. Sourdough expert Claire Watson joins us to tell us how she got into sourdough, explain who Linda the sourdough starter is, and hopefully demystify some of the stressful things about getting into baking this wondrous type of bread.

Also yes, we discuss naming your starter…because as most of us know, that’s a big thing.

This week on Baking Scraps, we’re flipping the script as Great Canadian Baking Show Season 5 winner Vincent Chan takes over the mic to interview Lisa and Cristina. They get into how they each fell in love with baking, the shows that pulled then in, and how an Instagram connection turned into real-life friendship (and a lot of baking together).

We chat behind-the-scenes baking show realities, our favourite challenges, and the community that keeps us coming back for more. There are stories, laughs, a few kitchen mishaps, and some honest takes on where baking shows are headed. Surprising questions also give insight into something you may never have needed to know about us (toilet paper habits, anyone..?)!

We also share something close to our hearts: Lisa’s young relative’s leukemia diagnosis, and how you can support through blood donation with Team Riley’s Hope and her GoFundMe 💛 https://gofund.me/0de1f1d85

It’s personal, unfiltered, and full of everything that makes this baking world so special.

This week on Baking Scraps, we’re bringing back one of our favourite conversations from our first year, with The Great Canadian Baking Show judges Bruno Feldeisen and Kyla Kennaley.

This episode is full of baking stories, behind-the-scenes moments, and so much insight from two incredibly talented bakers. Going back and listening to this one reminded us why we loved it so much the first time, and we’re so excited to share it again with you.

Whether you’re hearing it for the first time or listening back with us, we hope you enjoy this throwback episode as much as we did.
