Sarah Berry

This week host Sarah Berry welcomes Paul Daybell, the book arts and rare books curator at USU Libraries. They explore historic cookbooks and share some of the recipes they have sampled.

This week Eating the Past hosts continue their theme of birthday cakes, from the industrial revolution to the convenience and affordability of a cake in a box.

What better way to mark this milestone than with a food that highlights how we celebrate the passage of time. This week begins this three part series about the history of birthday cakes.

Host Sarah Berry shares the history and a recipe for one of the most iconic Romanian comfort foods, holiday sweet bread cozonac.

In keeping with this season's comfort food theme, Sarah Berry explores her favorite comfort food, soup. Particularly the traditional Scotch barley broth which originated centuries ago and likely pre-dates written history.

Eating the Past kicks off a new season introducing new hosts: Evelyn Funda, professor emerita of English at USU and Sarah Berry, USU digital archivist, University Libraries.
