  • EP 19 What's In Your Pantry: Vinegar & Cake Flour

    The two items that Leigh and Kim feature in As We Eat’s first ever “What’s in Your Pantry?” are considered kitchen staples, but both have fascinating histories in addition to long shelf lives. Although we were both dealing with some very challenging life circumstances, we got together to talk about vinegar and cake flour.

  • EP 17 Passover: Deliverance, Bitter Herbs, and Maxwell House Coffee

    Like other Spring holidays of Nowruz and Easter, Passover is celebrated at the family table as a "place where we share our story as a people, and these foods help us to do this. We speak and listen, and we're nourished body and soul."

    We discuss the Seder dinner and the significance of the six items placed on the Seder Plate that symbolically represent the heritage of the Jewish faithful: Zeroa, Beitzah, Morar, Charoset, Karpas, Chazeret and the three Matzot (and the four cups of wine!)

    Learn how Maxwell House worked with the Jewish community to revive its flagging sales during Passover.
