CAFE Talks Ep. 16- You can't cook what you don't really know

That simple dish that your grandmother made – a dish likely passed down from her grandmother is more than just a memory. That dish reflects an understanding of source, tradition, culture, family, good times and challenging ones, economics and place. As important as it is for young cooks to understand how to cook, it is equally important to know the history of why to cook a certain way – what brought that dish to this place, at this time. Join us for an interesting conversation with Jeff Roberts of Cow Creek Creative Ventures. Jeff is an author, food historian, and an advocate for farmers, cheese makers, and food artisans of all types. Listen in as we share thoughts about the importance of history to the art and science of cooking.
