SUMMARY:FOUNDING FOODIES author talk - Golden Ball Tavern
DESCRIPTION:Join us for an online lecture with author and food writer\,
 Dave DeWitt as he talks about his book Founding Foodies: American Meals
 that Wouldn't Exist Today If Not For Washington\, Jefferson\, and
 Franklin. \n\nThe author talk will take place on Zoom - register below to
 receive the link a few days before the lecture.\n\nDave DeWitt is a food
 historian and one of the foremost authorities in the world on chile
 peppers\, spices\, and spicy foods. Dave received his ultimate accolade
 from no less than The New York Times that declared him to be “The Pope of
 Peppers.” Dave lives with his wife\, Mary Jane Wilan\, in the South
 Valley of Albuquerque\, New Mexico\, with a Doberman\, two Cornish Rex
 cats\, his garden\, and his greenhouse.\n\nOn Founding Foodies:\n\nEver
 wonder how certain foods came to be such huge staples of American culinary
 history? In this fascinating mashup between history book and cook book\,
 one of America's Founding Fathers could be at the source! Food writer Dave
 DeWitt entertainingly describes how some of America's most famous colonial
 leaders—like George Washington\, Thomas Jefferson\, and Benjamin
 Franklin—not only established America's political destiny\, but also
 revolutionized the very foods we eat. Beyond their legacy as
 revolutionaries and politicians\, the Founding Fathers of America were
 first and foremost a group of farmers. Like many of today's foodies\, they
 ardently supported sustainable farming and ranching\, exotic imported
 foods\, brewing\, distilling\, and wine appreciation. Explore their passion
 for the land and the bounty it produced through an intriguing narrative\,
 sprinkled with recipes that showcase their love of food and the art of
 eating that would ultimately become America's diverse food culture.
 Features over thirty authentic colonial recipes.
