This week’s Knead To Know dives into the viral rise of vintage baking — from heirloom cookbooks and antique mixing bowls to creators bringing “Granny Core” to Instagram and TikTok. Gemma even flips through her grandmother’s cookery book (recipes like Gooseberry Fool and Sally Lunn buns!) and explains why retro tools and recipes feel so fresh again today.

In Hot From The Oven, Gemma and Ami unpack TikTok’s quirky new claim: banana bread is now the “male equivalent of flowers.” Plus, a surprising look at WNBA players who bake off the court, from Caitlin Clark’s cookies and brownies to retired stars launching dessert businesses.

Finally, the Bold Baking Hotline tackles questions about recreating discontinued “Golden Fruit” cookies (Garibaldi Biscuits to the rescue!) and smart substitutions now that Nabisco chocolate wafers for icebox cakes are gone.

Ruthie's Table 4

Ruthie's Table 4

For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
