Arthur Schwartz on Jewish Food; Remembering Marcella Hazan and Charlie Trotter; Argentine Wines

The Leonard Lopate Show | Nov 25, 2013

Today is special edition of our Food Fridays series! We’ll be playing some great archival interviews about food. First, Arthur Schwartz talks about Yiddish food, and where to find the best Jewish food in New York. Then, a conversation with the beloved Italian cookbook writer Marcella and Victor Hazan from 2008—she died earlier this year. Laura Catena introduces us to some of Argentina’s wonderful wines. We’re replaying a 2004 conversation I had with chef Charlie Trotter, who passed away earlier this month.
