Episode 80 - Milk Street: The World In a Skillet by Christopher Kimball

Hello and welcome to Tasty Pages, a podcast from Cooking The Books. In this triumphant episode, we chat about our recent road trip to Chicago, our visit to a classic neighborhood block party and an Eater San Francisco article about all of the cookbooks featured in Hulu's buzz worthy series 'The Bear'. An unexpected dog-initiated mishap (not to worry, nothing gross) midway through the show forces us to take an unplanned break from recording (a first for the podcast!). Our show question is: What is your most extravagant kitchen purchase? Then, we chat about our featured cookbook, 'Milk Street: The World In a Skillet’ by Christopher Kimball. For our Gastro Obscura segment - Victoria takes us to Canada for a truly strange centuries-old ritual involving fur traders, libations and a flaming boar head! Lastly, Johnny ends things on a high note with a kid-friendly, food-related joke! This episode is sponsored by Yondu, makers of a vegetable-based umami sauce.
