    Episode 6 - Frugal Food

    Well its the start of a new year, and after our Christmas theme last month, we thought we would look at all those leftovers and how to be more money conscious at the dinner table.

    This time we talk about our favourite money saving tips, as well as Singapore Noodle and Caldo Verde. Then we talk about the future of the podcast before we step away to start planning season 2 of the dirty page.

    Thank you to everyone who has listened so far and if you have any questions or comments please email us at hello@thedirtypage.com or harrass us on our instagram .

    Where has the year gone? Already it's december and we are here to talk about our Christmas dirty pages! In a twist, we have chosen the same Author, without meaning to...

    So this month we will talk about the lovely Delia Smith and her recipes , and in the mailbag we will discuss a page that was sent to us that is very much a history piece and statement on intergenerational recipes.

    Welcome Friends, to Episode 3. We are really starting to feel like we've got this. We really enjoyed recording this one as this month we got to gush about not only our loved ones and what we cook for them to impress but also the high priestess of our urban religion : Nigella.

    We also talk about the importance of good stock, and what Chris reaches for when he's stressed...

    Episode 2: First/Student Cookbooks

    Wow, has it been a month already?

    We have been so blown away by all the support and feedback over the last month.

    We are back with episode 2, and hopefully our audio is much better this time around.

     

    This time we are talking about First or Student cookbooks: The books we first used after we left home, either at university or during our first job/jobs. We will talk about a cookbook that is very traditional, with all the pros and cons of that. Then Helen will talk about how she almost gained two husbands from a cookie recipe.

     

    As always, please let us know about your cookbooks you used after first leaving home, either in the comments below, at hello@thedirtypage.com, or on our instagram.
