This is a home cooking podcast, hosted by a couple of friends trying out recipes in our own regular home kitchens. We're sharing our experiences with other home cooks and bakers just like us.
This week, Erin dives into a Norweigan cook book, North Wild Kitchen, to make sweet buns rolled with two types of sugar - juniper berry and rose. And man, did we LOVE these buns.
Juniper berries and wild roses both grow natively here in Alberta, Canada, and many other parts of the world as well. When dried, ground and mixed with sugar, both make a delightful flavouring for rolled sweet buns. Who knew? But even if they're not native plants where you live, you're looking for dried berries and roses, so there's a good chance you can buy locally or order online.
Erin takes us through her experience making this recipe and offers a few tips. For example, you may need to adjust the amount of flour as she did (turns out someone baking in Calgary, Canada needs to use more flour than the Norwegian baker who wrote the recipe). Living on a different continent with different flour available to us might've played a part in that. This is what makes trying new recipes simply a grand experiment (and so much fun)!
This is a two-day recipe, not a last-minute project. But the time you need to make the dough and let it proof on day one, before rolling, cutting and baking on day two is totally worth it. We loved these buns, especially the juniper flavour. It's just the right level of unexpected in a sweet bun and is sure to impress.

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.
