Early California Cuisine |
|
None of the cooking techniques or popular dishes of either the first people of California or the Spaniards of the Mission period are common today. Why? How did the native people survive, and how did the introduction of agriculture change their lives? What delicacies did the pleasure-loving Californian Dons enjoy in their haciendas, and why did their cuisine die out so quickly after the USA annexed the territory? |
|
Our speaker for this program is Richard Foss. He is a journalist, author, culinary historian, and lecturer based in Manhattan Beach, California. You will learn so much about early California cuisine and much of it may surprise you! |
