Baker Ellen King Never Gets Tired Of Bread

Radio Cherry Bombe

Ellen King of Hewn Bakery in Evanston, Illinois, is happy to report that her love affair with baking is still going strong. A champion of heritage grains, Ellen chats with host Kerry Diamond about this year’s Thanksgiving and Hanukkah offerings from Hewn, including gougères, brie en croȗte, bourbon pecan pies, challah, and—baked, not fried—raspberry sufganiyot. Ellen also talks about the cornbread recipes from her cookbook, Heritage Baking, and walks us through her plan for her Thanksgiving leftovers.

Thank you to Kerrygold, the maker of butter and cheese from Irish grass-fed dairy, and "Julia," the Julia Child documentary, for supporting this episode.
