The kitchen is a battle place! Tune in to this weeks Eat Your Words, as host Cathy Erway welcomes Betty Fussell, author of My Kitchen Wars: A Memoir among ten other books, ranging from biography to cookbooks, food history and memoir. Chatting about her unparalleled career path, Betty shares the trials and tribulations publishing her work not only as a woman but also in convincing the world that there is more to food than recipes. After the break, Cathy delves into Bettys deep rooted interest in culinary history and how she blazed the way for American food writers everywhere. Highlighting cuisines across the country, Betty explains that though true regional dishes are somewhat rare these days, they reveal clues about the areas past, people, and cultures.
