A 1605 pliego that imagines the wedding between Guzmán de Alfarache and la Pícara Justina. Their wedding banquet includes grilled cats (☹️) that taste like ducks, and among the guests are Sancho Panza and Celestina.

A historical reconstruction of a 15th century recipe of Menjar blanc de carabasses from Mestre Robert's Libre del Coch. Great stuff from the Esculent Podcast team! esculent.podbean.com/e/libredelco...

¿A alguien le suena la expresión "quebrar los cuernos" como equivalente de "pintarlos"?

Listen to the latest episode of Esculent, where I had such fun talking to the incomparable Paul Freedman. We discuss the history of the celebrity chef and Catalan cuisine while sipping French wine out of mezcal glasses.

In case you had any doubts, our dean informed us that, in an effort to face budget cuts and find alternative sources of funding, the college has created the “Silicon Valley Advising Group”. 🫠

“The Chicago School doctrine of Corporate Social Responsibility is a rhetorical justification for private corporations to do what they prefer to do anyway: act contrary to the interests of rank-&-file employees, harmed communities, & social activists. This is what the MLA is endorsing…”
What The MLA Is...
The organization has chosen an interpretation of fiduciary responsibility beyond the wildest hopes of Chicago School economists.

Listen to our latest episode, recorded live! We talk with chefs Norma Listman and Saqib Keval about historically informed food, how to run a justice-based restaurant, and their recent (controversial) Chef's Table feature. This one is particularly good. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/t...

Come to our MLA panel this Saturday! We reflect on workers' initiatives to create community, strategic efforts to make labor visible or invisible, and the contentious meanings surrounding the nature of work in early modern Iberia.

This weekend marked the first Thinking Food colloquium, the materialization of a question I have been mulling over since I was a grad student. How can I, as a scholar of the early modern past, contribute to addressing the inequities in our food systems and cultures?

Let the fun begin — kicking off today with a conversation with chefs Norma Listman and Saqib Keval, and Santana Díaz about bringing radical change to the hospitality industry. It will be livestreamed!

Only @danielagtzf.bsky.social can bring scholars, chefs, and food justice activists together to talk about how we talk about food––and how we eat it. I'd say run to get your ticket if you are in California, but there are no more tickets left...

There is only one podcast talking about food justice, conversos hiding their eating habits in pies, and the Black Panthers -- and it is this one
