Episode 2: Towards a Bertonian Cuisine
For our second episode we’re diving into Pierre and Laura Berton’s Canadian Food Guide and surfacing with some skill-testing recipes. We’re shucking oysters, gelling some jello and deep-frying wonderful things—all on the wise advice of the Bertons.
This book is such a treasure that this episode will be the first in a series of Bertonian episodes. For the first in the series, we’re using the Bertons’ arguments for what makes cuisine “Canadian” to figure out what might constitute Canadian fashion as well. Hint: it’s a bit of a stretch.
