Season's Eatings - Trifle Mar 25, 2022

Show notes

We've all been there. The holidays are winding down and you need a way to use up all that leftover sponge cake and whipped cream from the mountain of desserts adorning the Christmas table. This dessert is a lovely combination of fruit, cake, cream, jelly and a splash of alcohol. It's a dessert whose origins may have come from a little fun in the hay, to suffering fools, to making something of little consequence. We're exploring the history and origins of trifle.

Season's Eatings - Linzer Cookie Feb 25, 2022

Show notes

While this item can be enjoyed all throughout the year, it's commonly created for the holiday season. It's considered a sandwich cookie with a lovely jam centre. It derives from a dish considered the oldest recipe for a pie written down. Like many recipes, the flavours change from region to region, but the original can be traced back to one place. It's a cookie made from ground nuts, spices, and jam. We're exploring the history and origins of the linzer cookie.

Season's Eatings - Boar's Head Dec 21, 2021

Show notes

In many of the great Christmas songs there are many references to food. Who can't remember singing about chestnuts roasting on a open fire, or traveling to enjoy some pumpkin pie? But this time I want to travel back to a time when people gathered in great halls and made merry during the twelve days of Christmas. This dish is still found on Christmas tables throughout Sweden. We're exploring the history and origins of the boar's head.

Season's Eatings Side Dish - Green Bean Casserole Dec 10, 2021

Show notes

This holiday season, some 20 million Americans will tuck into this casserole, a culinary classic consisting of just six ingredients: a can of Campbell's cream of mushroom soup, milk, soy sauce, black pepper, green beans and crunchy fried onions. The retro recipe, which has been appearing on American tables for more than 60 years, can be traced back to one woman. This woman singlehandedly changed the landscape of the holiday table. We're exploring the history and origins of green bean casserole.

Season's Eatings Side Dish - Stuffing Nov 10, 2021

Show notes

Its bland base of bread or rice invites embellishment, both traditional and irreverent, and in dressing recipes, sausage, nuts, fruit, mushrooms, and shellfish combine in countless permutations. In contrast to the more predictable turkey, stuffing is the frisky, occasionally outlandish, personality of the holiday table. We're explore the history and origins of stuffing.

Season's Eatings - Melomakarona Oct 25, 2021

Show notes

In Greece the biggest Christmas preparation is not so much about decorating the house, but preparing the food. Characteristically the biggest part of the house decorations are the huge plates of cookies and desserts that are displayed all around the house. The traditional Christmas cookies and their variations are placed in very prominent places and free for all to have! This sweet cookie has a somber history but is now the major cookie to be served during the holidays. We're exploring the history and origins of melomakarona.
