  6. Digesting Food Studies—Episode 118: Reading Menus as History
    rss.com/podcasts/digesting-foo

    What’s on the menu? A lot, it turns out, and we’re not just talking about hors d’oeuvres and tasting combos. From gravy stains to hand-written notes, menus are an important source of information about cultural histories, social patterns, and human migration.

    This episode considers menus as historical records. Alexia Moyer shares excerpts of meal planning from Northern Cookbook, and guest Koby Song-Nichols explains his 4-part methodology for menu analysis, discussed in “Can Historians Order off the Menu?” from Canadian Food Studies. (doi.org/10.15353/cfs-rcea.v11i).

    And, serving up a scoopful of DFS afters, Anson Hunt weighs in with his perspective on Koby’s article and the ways that menus bridge conversations between front, back, and middle of house.

  17. It's October, which means it's almost #Thanksgiving here in #Canada. [1]

    One of the traditional meals at Thanksgiving here is turkey. And I thought of that because I roasted a chicken this week. More specifically, I thought about how magical it is that many #chefs and #cooks and plain old folx can carve a #chicken or #turkey and have it come out as beautiful, even slices of white #meat, and lovely whole #drumsticks or wings, or what-have-you.

    Because when I carve a bird, it looks like I did it with a #chainsaw. Or possibly a #lawnmower.

    [1] Yes, it's ~6 weeks earlier than USA Thanksgiving. For much of Canada, the only harvest we could be grateful for in #November is #snow.

    Edit: fix late-night thinko/typo.

He is the #patron saint of those who work with open fires (#cooks, #bakers, #brewers, #textile cleaners, #tanners), of those to whom fire means harm (#librarians, #archivists, #miners, #poor people), and of #comedians.

  21. Sen. #AlexPadilla is forcibly removed from #DHS Secretary #KristiNoem's news conference in #LosAngeles

    Noem was in L.A. to address the ongoing demonstrations against President Donald #Trump's #immigration policies.

    June 12, 2025, 2:32 PM EDT / Updated June 12, 2025, 2:59 PM EDT
    By Rebecca Shabad and Jacob Soboroff

    "Sen. Alex Padilla, D-Calif., was forcibly removed from a news conference in Los Angeles on Thursday after trying to question Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem during a press conference related to immigration.

    " 'I am Sen. Alex Padilla. I have questions for the secretary,' Padilla said to Noem, which prompted several men to physically push him out of the room. It was unclear who the men were, as several were dressed in plainclothes.

    "Padilla's office shared a video of the incident with NBC News. The video shows Padilla being taken into a hallway outside and pushed face forward onto the ground as officers with FBI-identifying vests told the senator to put his hands behind his back. The officers then handcuffed him.

    "President Donald Trump's immigration policies — and the administration's handling of demonstrations against those policies — have sparked an outcry in recent days. After protesters clashed with officers from Immigration and Customs Enforcement in Los Angeles on Friday, the president deployed members of the National Guard, and later Marines, to assist local law enforcement. Dozens of demonstrations have taken place across the country in the days that followed.

    "Speaking to reporters later Thursday, Padilla said he was receiving a briefing from military officials when he learned Noem was in the same building and decided to join her briefing.

    " 'I was there peacefully,' he said. 'At one point, I had a question, and so I began to ask a question. I was almost immediately forcibly removed from the room, I was forced to the ground, and I was handcuffed.'

    "He added, 'If this is how this administration responds to a senator with a question, if this is how the Department of Homeland Security responds to a senator with a question, you can only imagine what they’re doing to #FarmWorkers, to #cooks, to #DayLaborers out in the #LosAngeles community and throughout #California and throughout the country.' "

  22. Okay, here's a challenge for the bakers on here:

    I want to make a flat, crispy bread, with whole, cooked, possibly sprouted grains (wheat, rye, barley, buckwheat). I want as little flour as possible in the dough, just enough to hold it together. I have a strong rye sourdough.
    The purpose is to have a crisp bread that would work well for a diabetic. Hence the whole grains. Also oil free, of course.
    Any thoughts, #Fedicooks #cooks #bakers #bread #vegan #diabetes #EllieKPosts
