COOKING UP HISTORY: JUBILEE: RECIPES FROM TWO CENTURIES OF AFRICAN AMERICAN COOKING

Cooking Up History showcases a guest chef and the American History Museum's resident food historian, Dr. Ashley Rose Young, preparing a recipe and talking about the history and traditions behind its ingredients, culinary techniques, and enjoyment. In 2020, they will be highlighting objects and stories about women. Join culinary journalist, author, and community activist Toni Tipton-Martin as she shares research and recipes from her cookbook, Jubilee: Recipes from Two Centuries of African American Cooking. She’ll reveal the inspiring history of women chefs and home cooks while teaching us how to prepare their historic recipes in a modern kitchen. After the demonstration, Tipton-Martin will sign copies of her cookbook which will be available for purchase on site. The event is free and is from 1:00 to 2:00 p.m. For more information, click here.
