Expect to gain new insights about Midwestern foodways through compelling interviews with historians, authors, chefs and makers; each of whom brings a unique perspective on the Midwest's culinary story.
Host Capri S. Cafaro is joined by an inspiring lineup of guests who will share their insights on how Southeast Asian immigrants have impacted the Midwestern food landscape. Dr. Ashley Rose Young of the Smithsonian Institution will provide context to the migratory patterns of SE Asian immigrants into the Midwest, while Yia Vang and Zin Zin Htun will share their own personal experiences as food entrepreneurs who brought their native Hmong and Burmese flavors to Minneapolis and Indianapolis respectively.
