We're off the farm in this episode as listeners and friends share their holiday foods and traditions. As we listen to these five people tell us about the foods that must be a part of their festive season, it's impossible not to reflect more on our own traditions. It's also likely to make you want to visit someone else's holiday table to try at least one dish! 

You'll hear from:

  • Ari Mateos (Mexicali, MX) who shares tips on why pozole is different during the holidays and the best part of bacalao (a traditional dish made with cod)
  • Josie Gordon (AL) who's family celebrates a traditional Southern Thanksgiving with turkey & dressing, but who's Cuban roots lead at Christmas
  • Nikki Miller Ka (NC) who says holidays are fairly similar with proteins like turkey, ham or lamb enjoyed but Southern Mac & Cheese is critical!  
  • Dana Zucker (MD) who welcomes guests at Sugar Water Manor shares about Hanukkah and the latkes (potato pancakes) and sufganiyot (jelly-filled donuts)
  • Rosemary Mark (CA) discusses the holiday cakes & noodles through her family's lens as immigrants from Germany and her husband's family immigration from China. 

We share some more notes on groundedbythefarm.com and access our full series of episodes and posts on favorite holiday foods from the farm and kitchen!
