DESCRIPTION:Register here: https://libraryc.org/lima/44311 \nVirtually step into the Smithsonian Institution’s National Museum of American History with Curator Paula Johnson as she discusses the book Smithsonian American Table: The Foods\, People\, and Innovations That Feed Us. \nAmerican Table is a sweeping history of food and culture that summons everyone to the table for a fresh look at some of the people\, ingredients\, events\, and movements that have shaped how and what we eat. \nJohnson\, curator and project director of the American Food History Project\, will discuss several stories featured in the volume\, with an emphasis on those that intersect most directly with the Smithsonian’s research\, collecting\, and programming around food history. \nDuring this event\, Johnson will engage viewers in discovering the connections between food and American history: \n\nHow immigration and migration has shaped (and continues to shape) American tables\,\nHow food companies have influenced home cooks through advertising\, from Jell-O salads to Crock-pots.\nHow individuals from Brownie Wise to James Beard and Julia Child inspired generations of cooks and eaters across the United States.\nAnd show viewers how uniting in the kitchen can change the shape of our collective futures\, specifically highlighting growers and chefs who are reclaiming and reinventing regional and cultural traditions\, including Indigenous ingredients and cooking techniques.\n\nAfter this enlightening\, enriching\, and entertaining webinar\, you can cook your way through the recipes that are featured in the volume that reflect American history and culture.   Hungry for more?
