Event Information

'Some women leave diaries. My mother left recipes’, the writer Linda Murray Berzok mused in Storied Dishes. What our Family Recipes Tell Us About Who We Are and Where We’ve Been. History is all around us, including in our kitchens. Many of us have cookery books or recipes that we’ve inherited from our mothers or other relatives. In this interactive workshop food historian Rebecca Earle explores the hidden histories of family recipes. Participants are invited to bring a cookery book belonging to someone from their family, to learn about different ways of exploring the past.
