I can never resist the opportunity to talk with a food scholar about the food of New Orleans. I talked to Theresa McCulla, about her new book, Insatiable City: Food and Race in New Orleans. We still care so much about our food in the city that it is easy to understand its importance in the past. But the city’s past is not all rosy. Learning about it makes for a real discomfort, especially knowing how the city’s wealth and prosperity were built.

Listen as we speak with Theresa McCulla. It’s on Tip of the Tongue.

It would be wonderful to know that your cookbook will become a classic when you are writing it. Unfortunately it is impossible to predict what the zeitgeist will demand. But Who’s Your Mama, Are You Catholic, and Can You Make a Roux? seems to have met the test of time. We talk with Marcelle Bienvenu, whose title is intriguing and so is her story. But the title also tells the story of south Louisiana in just a few phrases. And it doesn’t hurt that the recipes are classic. We chat with Marcelle. It’s on Tip of the Tongue.

Can’t get enough of Marcelle? Listen here.
The new edition of Who’s Your Mama, Are You Catholic, and Can You Make a Roux? is being published by Susan Schadt Press.
