Love it

One of my favourite, relaxing podcasts. Perfect for popping on as I wash up or put clothes away. Had some really good insights to improve my cooking from here. However, the canned laughter occasionally grated on me. All in all, really good.

Ace podcast, heavy handed audience noise

I love this podcast and the content is always so useful for inventive cooks. My main criticism is the heavy handed audio mix of the virtual audience... it’s SO annoying and frequently impedes hearing what the panel have to say. It needs a bit of finesse....

Canned laughter is pretty weird for a podcast

I started listening to this in 2020 and it’s just my kind of thing, but I guess they replaced a radio 4 studio audience with REALLY enthusiastic canned laughter and applause and it has honestly got on my nerves - I know it predates podcasting but it sounds like all the podcast-first shows I like, except those podcasters would be considered insane for adding canned laughter. I’m going to take a break from it until they have a human audience again or at least ditch the very loud fake stuff.

Proving dough.

In the winter I always prove my dough on the floor above the underfloor heating. If it’s not cold enough to have the heating on I warm the oven and prove the dough on the top of that in a glass bowl. I should clarify that I have a table top oven.

Thanks!

The Kitchen Cabinet makes me very happy! I said this spontaneously out loud this morning much to my husband’s amusement. I’ve learnt so many things and always enjoy the enthusiasm of the panel. Thanks everyone!

Superbly entertaining and informative, look forward to this dropping every week.
Question, why no back catalogue guys.

Why is

Everyone talking so fast you can hardly picture what they’re saying? I liked this show initially but it’s trying too hard and the speed at which some of the panel are rattling off recipes is counter productive because the whole point of a food thing is to imagine the food. I don’t think you’ll do this show successfully on delivery alone even if you are trying to appeal to a young and snappy audience

Listen , and listen again

The range of ideas, the shared good fun and different locations make this a great podcast. For a foodie you need to listen to it again to write down the recipes. Always enjoyably informative.

Scripted

Great show, Jay needs to sound a little less like he is reading from a script to make it more immersive

Please sir, I want some more

My favourite programme on the BBC. Never a dull moment with Jay and his panel. Funny, interesting, intelligent, the format is simple and genius. Jay Rayner is a legend!

Miss it when the season ends

I’ve really enjoyed listening to Jay Rayner and his wonderful guests for almost three years now. I always find the programme useful and interesting, whether it’s an idea for using an ingredient, or some fascinating foodie history from a region in the U.K. I especially enjoy Dr Annie Gray’s historical concoctions and wish I could be an audience member in real life!

Sublime

A great look at food. A great show with a great host Jay Rayner and great contributors my personal favourites are Annie Gray and Tim Hayward. A great place to learn and all delivered with such humour. Don’t even mention the candle salad!

The Kitchen Cabinet

Upbeat version of the Food programme. Never dull, usually informative and funny. Great contributions from the guests and well kept in order by Rayner. Well worth a listen.

Disappointing

I found it a bit disappointing. There are not many questions asked by the audience in each episode, and some of the questions asked seem to be a little contrived. It has used a similar format as Gardeners Question Time without the success.

Painful Banter

The forced, unfunny pre-show banter in the podcast is laboured and painful listening. But fast forward a minute or so and the show proper is great.

Wonderful

Am downloading these after catching a few this week on radio 4. Its a great format, relaxed but informative. Jay makes a great host too, hope there are many more to come

Excellent

I only found this podcast last week but I find it excellent, only to be disappointed that this is the last of the series. Typically I get three of four ideas that I follow up on from each episode, whereas most food podcasts focus on one ingredient or recipe, and if that doesn't particularly interest you then there is little to be got from it. This format of question and answer session suits me perfectly. I hope it will be back soon.

Really enjoyable foodie banter

Very Gardeners' Question Time-esque but taking itself a lot less seriously. Really good fun.

Like gardener's question time, but with food

A show where they discuss topics and answer questions from the audience. I half expect someone to turn up with some food that "just fails to thrive", and ask for help from the panel. I enjoy it though, it's very foodie but accessible to all. More please.
