Manage episode 433032543 series 2946138
What if you could uncover the secrets behind the careers of top culinary professionals? Join me, Coach Mikki, as I sit down with the remarkable David Page, president and executive producer of Page Productions, to discuss his journey from radio to television and his latest venture into podcasting with "Culinary Characters Unlocked." Discover David's passion for storytelling, particularly through engaging conversations with chefs and restaurateurs, and listen as he shares an enchanting anecdote about his first guest, the legendary Nancy Silverton, a pioneer of California cuisine and artisanal bread in America.
Our conversation also navigates the richness of regional cuisines, revealing how modern transportation and technology have made local flavors accessible far beyond their origins. Reflect on the significance of experiencing local foods in their native settings, like the unique taste of Jersey Shore oysters or South Georgia shrimp. Insights from my chat with Adrian Miller, a scholar of Southern and African-American food, provide a deeper understanding of Southern cuisine's diversity, from German-inspired Tennessee barbecue sauces to African-American-developed whole hog barbecue. This episode emphasizes the cultural stories embedded in the foods we cherish.
The adventure concludes with a tantalizing journey through the South, exploring the regional differences in beloved dishes like grits and cream of wheat, and a dive into the history of Gullah Geechee cuisine. Alongside fascinating travel stories, including a memorable dining experience in Ethiopia and a quirky tale about NATO's smallest army in Luxembourg, this episode is a testament to the vibrant world of food and culture.
