I can never resist the opportunity to talk with a food scholar about the food of New Orleans. I talked to Theresa McCulla, about her new book, Insatiable City: Food and Race in New Orleans. We still care so much about our food in the city that it is easy to understand its importance in the past. But the city’s past is not all rosy. Learning about it makes for a real discomfort, especially knowing how the city’s wealth and prosperity were built.
Listen as we speak with Theresa McCulla. It’s on Tip of the Tongue.

It would be wonderful to know that your cookbook will become a classic when you are writing it. Unfortunately it is impossible to predict what the zeitgeist will demand. But Who’s Your Mama, Are You Catholic, and Can You Make a Roux? seems to have met the test of time. We talk with Marcelle Bienvenu, whose title is intriguing and so is her story. But the title also tells the story of south Louisiana in just a few phrases. And it doesn’t hurt that the recipes are classic. We chat with Marcelle. It’s on Tip of the Tongue.
Can’t get enough of Marcelle? Listen here.
The new edition of Who’s Your Mama, Are You Catholic, and Can You Make a Roux? is being published by Susan Schadt Press.

Allison Alsup has written a fascinating novel. It stems from the factual disappearance of Frank Meyer, of Meyer lemon fame, while an agricultural explorer for the US Department of Agriculture in China. The book is definitely worth reading, but I also think that the conversation with Allison about the Office of Seed and Plant Introduction, a part of the US Department of Agriculture, is also worth listening too. We have been adding to the agricultural diversity of the US through agricultural explorers for decades. And ironically it has led to Big Ag using this diversity to cherry pick the characteristics it was and allowing all of the genetic traits of the plants to recede. Today we have less diversity. An interesting and ironic turn of fate. It’s on Tip of the Tongue.

This festival, Paella, Pulpo, y Pan, is a celebration of Spanish New Orleans. Putting together this festival, year to year, making it better and more full of depth each year, reminds me of growing the Southern Food & Beverage Museum from an idea to what it is today, 20 years later. This festival is smashing. And the addition of the wood fired oven is going to raise it to a new level.
