Bonus Weekend Podcast: Passover Stories from our Archives

The Leonard Lopate Show | Apr 22, 2016

Happy Passover! We have three great interviews from the archives to get you ready for the week. Aaron Gross, great-great-grandson of the founder of Streit's Matzo, unveils the history of the family's matzo business. They had been baking on the Lower East Side since 1925, and moved out of the neighborhood just last year. Jonathan Safran Foer and Nathan Englander discuss The New American Haggadah, their take on a traditional Passover prayer book. And Melissa Clark discusses some of her favorite Passover recipes. Enjoy!
