  • Paris Is a Feast – And the Home of a Mushroom, a Ham, and France's Most Famous Soup

    Paris Is a Feast – And the Home of a Mushroom, a Ham, and France's Most Famous Soup
    Aug 26 2022
    If Ernest Hemingway described Paris as a feast, it's no surprise. While as an urban center, it could seem as though Paris' terroir is defined by the surrounding countryside, Emily and Caroline are here to show you that's not the whole truth. Delve into underground caverns where button mushrooms grow, and explore the now-defunct marketplace that Emile Zola characterized as the city's belly. It's irreverent and delicious – time to dig in!

    Brittany’s Salt-Laced Butter Was Born of a Salt Tax
    Aug 19 2022
    Brittany boasts some of France's most beautiful coastline, so it's no surprise that it's home to some phenomenal seafood. But this region, which has taken great strides to ensure its independence and uniqueness, is also known for its crêpes, mead, and "white gold" – a flaky sea salt that will blow your mind.

  • Burgundy’s Dukes Paved the Way for the Kings of Wines and Cheeses

    Burgundy’s Dukes Paved the Way for the Kings of Wines and Cheeses
    Jul 22 2022
    Burgundy may be known for its wine (and wine sauces) but it's also beloved for other flavors including garlic and parsley butter (aka the sauce adorning snails and frogs!), mustard, and some truly funky cheeses. Tune in to find out why Dijon mustard is a misnomer and which cheese Brillat-Savarin thought was the king of all French fromage.

  • Why Is Burgundy the Fanciest Wine in the World?

    Why Is Burgundy the Fanciest Wine in the World?
    Jul 15 2022
    Some bottles of Burgundy cost tens of thousands of euros – a contributing factor to one of the most high-profile wine heists in history. Caroline is sharing that tale, while Emily clues listeners into the misnomers behind some of Burgundy's purportedly most famous dishes. (And fangirls over Napoleon. Again.)

  • France's Auvergne is Home to 80 Volcanoes, 5 AOP Cheeses, and So Much More

    France's Auvergne is Home to 80 Volcanoes, 5 AOP Cheeses, and So Much More
    Jul 8 2022
    The Auvergne isn't the most-visited area of France, but it really should be: Home not only to the Michelin guide and to 80 dormant volcanoes, the Auvergne boasts a rich, little-known wine tradition, some of the country's most delicious cheeses, and perhaps the only lentil protected by law.
