I listened to my first episode and it was about the 2026 recipe of the year -flaky puff pizza crust and all I could think was how soon can I get home to make this! I have been using KA flour for years and am an avid home baker and this episode was fully engaging and perfect for all bakers everywhere! I can’t wait to listen to past episodes and look forward to future ones!
