Class Description

Description

What you'll learn in this lecture class:

Part of the Plants, Cuisine and Culture series, Indian Cuisine with Simon Majumdar online program is presented in partnership with Franklin Park Conservatory, Lewis Ginter Botanical Garden, Missouri Botanical Garden, and Phipps Conservatory and Botanical Gardens.

Plants are intimately linked to our cultural identities and food traditions. Plants tell us where we are and who we are in how we use them to feed ourselves. When we migrate, we carry our culture and cuisine with us. In this series, renowned chefs, culinary historians, and authors from cultures around the world discuss how plants shaped their foodways.

This class will be taught online via Zoom. Registered students will receive login instructions one day in advance.
