Episode 4 – The Traveling Plum

Food might be everyone’s favorite folklife genre, where it comes from, how we prepare and serve it, how and when we serve it – it’s tasty stuff! In this episode we learn about a favorite playground snack, the saladito, from Feng Feng Yeh, Tucson artist and culinary activist. Made with salted dried plum served atop half a lemon or orange, this snack reveals the long and circuitous journeys so many of our foods travel before they arrive in our mouths. Tune in to learn about this “Chinese candy” and how it carries ancestral knowledge and history.
