A weekly podcast about eating and cooking (but mainly eating) hosted by Malaika Malz & Harleigh Reid.
Sonder is the realisation that each random passerby is living a life as vivid and complex as your own despite personal lack of awareness of it. Salt is an irreplaceable kitchen essential with an entirely unfair health reputation. Catch us every Monday on Spotify and Apple Podcasts.
Happy Black History Month! This is an updated revisit of our 2023 conversation on Black British cuisine. Malaika and Harleigh discuss if there is a real Black British culture and if Black British cuisine will ever be as established as Black food in the US? If Black British food doesn't evolve, will it just end up as a commemoration of our parent's home cooking? Join the conversation...

The "trad wife" and homestead culture trend on TikTok is inspiring a growing number of people to embrace traditional homemaking skills but is it realistic? Is this trend any more than just a nostalgic throwback and what does it reveal about how we're rethinking gender roles, motherhood and the idea of "healthy" food?

For this very special Juneteenth episode, Harleigh and Malaika were joined by James Beard Award winning activist, social commentator and HBCU alumni KJ Kearney. KJ breaks down the difference between THE cookout and A cookout, explains the variations in soul food across America and sets the record straight on if there raisins in the potato salad.
Juneteenth, celebrated on June 19, commemorates the emancipation of enslaved African Americans in the United States. It marks the day in 1865 when news of the Emancipation Proclamation reached Galveston, Texas, over two years after it was issued.

Food is for everyone, and cooking should be too. As a society, have we become too focused on the aesthetic of food and forgotten the joy of cooking, eating and sharing? Lucy Dearlove's series 'Kitchens' for podcast Lecker reminds us that kitchens come in all shapes and sizes, whilst Ruby Tandoh's 'Cook As You Are' shows there is recipe for even the least vibrant ingredients you have at home.

Sonder & Salt is a weekly food podcast about the magic of eating.
For this (rather lengthy) mini-sode, Malaika and Harleigh jump onto a trending topic over on X about a well known black owned pub, Prince of Peckham, that hosts the non-black owned residency ‘White Men Can’t Jerk’. Is this a harmful or playful play on words? Are patrons of WMCJ enabling erasure of genuine Jamaican and Jerk establishments? Is there more that black chefs and restauranteurs could be doing to ensure their businesses are ready to grow in residency spaces like this? Join the conversation…

Harleigh and Malaika follow on from last week's food hygiene and home episode to venture into restaurant kitchens, decoding food hygiene ratings and understanding exactly what is getting scored. Does a 5* quality restaurant always have a top cleanliness rating? Harleigh is shocked to find out the rating of her local mini-marts and Malaika is pleasantly surprised by her local favourites.

There are rules and regulations surrounding food hygiene on farms, in factories and restaurants, but standards vary from country to country and in some cases state to state. The average consumers expectations of food hygiene when out and about are rightfully high but... what's going on at home? Are we keeping our home kitchens to the standards we expect of restaurants? Do you really know how to clean? Would your kitchen actually get a good food hygiene rating?
