Episode 17 - War and Spice

from Victory Kitchen Hosted by Sarah Creviston Lee

Americans faced scarcities of their favorite spices and flavorings during WWII while shipping was threatened by U-boats and enemy aircraft around the globe. In this last episode of Season 2, Sarah digs into newspapers to piece together a timeline of spices' disappearance from American pantries and discovers how science saved the day. She finds some toast recipes that have changed her breakfasts forever and tells the homefront story of one family dairy in Houston, TX. Correction: In this episode, I mention I make six toast recipes but then only tell you about 5. You can see all six recipes that I made on my blog www.victorykitchenpodcast.blog!
