There are some exciting things happening around Food History in the United States right now.
To find out about some of these, the team chat to Dr Ashley Rose Young, a food history guru who works with a team of curators and historians as part of the American Food History Project at the National Museum of American History (part of the Smithsonian).
Plus Dr Scoff cooks up a delightful twist on Chef Ed Lee’s Korean donuts.
A few points to clarify just in case:
Ashley is not the head of the American Food History Project. That would be curator Paula Johnson.
Ashley has written a dissertation on New Orleans cuisine and is currently working on the book manuscript project. So, the book isn’t finished yet.
