Mentioned in this Episode

It’s no secret I love the Southern Food and Beverage Museum (SOFAB), especially after you listen to this episode where Liz Williams and I talk about their new National Culinary Heritage Register program. They also have a new podcast network and tons of educational opportunities. My brother Randy and I visited in 2019 and really enjoyed it. Here are a few pics from our visit to SOFAB:

Fenugreek! In the last Let’s Cook episode I made butter chicken that called for both fenugreek seeds and leaves. If you are looking to get ahold of some fenugreek but can’t find it locally, give The Spice House a shot. They are my favorite online spice shop, and they carry seeds (both whole and ground) as well as dried leaves.
