@tastinghistory.bsky.socialThis is a recipe for Baklava from 1844. The history of baklava is both murky and interesting but this recipe, from the Ottoman Empire, is purely delicious. youtu.be/Jxu7Lrxu7nE?...

@tastinghistory.bsky.socialThis is kvass - a fermented drink of Slavic origin. This 15th recipe from the Domostroi, calls only for water, honey and bread. Let it ferment, strain, and bottle. It tasted like you’re drinking a loaf of fizzy rye bread and it’s delicious. youtu.be/oNmxLEHwaqY?...

@tastinghistory.bsky.socialAlso, I wish we had an image of Hemings. What I didn’t want to do is what so many websites do and use a picture of Hercules (George Washington’s chef) as a surrogate for Hemings.

@tastinghistory.bsky.socialThis is a dish called Snow Eggs. It’s one of the many dishes which James Hemings, the enslaved chef of Thomas Jefferson, brought back to the US after leaning to cook in France. Thank you @colonialwmsburg for hosting me. youtu.be/BZa0Mg55pCk?...
