A BUSY WEEK!
1st hooray - Women's Work - The Untold Story of America’s Female Farmers
has its PBS Premier on September 26 on KSPS serving the Spokane, WA area!
But seriously - let's talk about jelly. Yeah - I definitey learned great disdain for Jell-O as I grew up - cheap and ceerful, and it seemed like tawdry empty calories. The research for this episode showed me it has a long and proud history as an exclusive food that us moderns poorly understand.
As an American I am incredibly suspicious of savory jellies. I have been fooled into missing some good stuff. How did it all go wrong? This episode holds a few clues.
Also - finally all those references to Blancmange in British English media will make sense to all us American English types.
But in the meantime - check out my appearance on TodayFood.com
And - keep your ears out for the crossover episode about the 1st Glass of Coca-Cola from History Daily and Wondery
