League of Kitchens: Preserving Culinary Traditions

It's often said that the last aspect of a culture that remains after assimilation and acculturation is the food. And the fullest expression of the food of a particular culture is the food that was prepared and eaten at home. League of Kitchens is an organization that offers classes that aim to transmit that culinary knowledge along with the cooking techniques and traditions of the culture. Guest host Julia Fleisch interviews the League's founder, Lisa Gross, about the philosophical foundations of League of Kitchens.
