Malaika Malz and Harleigh Reid
A weekly food 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. Together 'Sonder & Salt' combines the ideas of recognising the depth and complexity of individual lives and the essence of seasoning and enhancing experiences. Serving up fresh food-filled episodes every Monday.
S3 E12: How to eat seasonally this autumn
In the age of constant supply and globalisation, do we still need to eat with the seasons? Can you taste if your produce is in season or not? Can more be done to enable access to affordable local produce for all? Join the conversation!

A Pinch of Salt: Can White Men Jerk?
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…

S3 E11: Filthy Food Hygiene in London Restaurants
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.

An Evening With Sonder & Salt... Tickets available now on Eventbrite: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/an-evening-with-sonder-salt-tickets-716727379887?aff=oddtdtcreator
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?

S3 E4: What Is MSG and How Bad Is It Really? feat. MiMi Aye
So you think you know MSG? I bet you don't know how many names it has and how many of your cupboard staples it may be in...
In this episode, Harleigh and Malaika are joined by very special guest, MiMi Aye. MiMi Aye is a cookbook author, blogger, podcast host, activist and MSG advocate. MiMi first gives a brief education into Burmese food and its differences to other Asian cuisines, their national dishes and why the Burmese love to cook with MSG.
