Italians take snacking seriously. In the first part of today’s show, we’re talking about “spuntini”—Italian snacks—with chef and recipe developer Anna Francese Gass, author of the new cookbook, “Italian Snacking: Sweet and Savory Recipes for Every Hour of the Day.” Learn why the book is like a trip to Italy in book form, Anna’s Italian vacation tips, and why Italian street food is not eaten on the street. 

Next, we’re flashing back to Jubilee 2023 with an inspiring talk from Maya-Camille Broussard of the Chicago bakery Justice of the Pies and the Netflix series “Bake Squad.” 

Thank you to Johnnie Walker and to Walmart for supporting our Women’s History Month spotlight.
