Hunting for History: El Mercado

Hungry for History with Eva Longoria and Maite Gomez-Rejón

With the holidays upon us, this time of year is one of the busiest for markets. On this episode, Eva and Maite go back in time to explore how early communities centered around one thing - mercados! The soul of every community, mercados provided people with gossip, entertainment and, of course, food!

Plus, Chef Bryan Ford joins the show to talk about his new book, Pan y Dulce: The Latin American Baking Book. The cookbook is filled with the yummiest recipes from Latin America and explores breads and ingredients that would have been sold in pre-Hispanic markets.
