Clip: Transnationalism effects the way we store our past in our recipes (ep 1)
"Society over the last few centuries is a society that’s moved continents.. [so]..how does this transnationalism affect the way we store our past, in our recipes, in our everyday meals, in our special meals?
And so that’s why I think it’s really important to understand what we mean by good food especially when we have to take into account every food has a history, every food has a biography.
If we pay more attention to that, we get to taste through and get to understand what that’s like on the palate."
