A-Z of Aotearoa: V for Vogel's

from RNZ - All Programmes

Today we continue our way through the A-Z of Aotearoa. We pick something quintessentially Kiwi for each letter and dive into it's history. You can find all of these segments at rnz.co.nz/afternoons - we've had P for Pies, S for Silver Fern, K for Kauri. Today it's V for Vogel's. Vogel's, one of those iconically New Zealand brands that's graced all of our pantries. However, it's a New Zealand story that begins with a Swiss recipe, a German-Jewish refugee, a Dutch apprentice, and a small Ponsonby bakery. To tie it all together and share with us the fascinating history of Vogel's bread Emile is joined by Helen Klisser During, daughter of Vogel's founder Johan Klisser.
