Ep. 32 - Interview with Food Historian Ken Albala on Dashi and Noodle Soups
Manage episode 279678331 series 2686186
On today's episode I sit down with Professor Ken Alabala, A food historian from the University of the Pacific. Ken has written 25 books on the history of food, one of which was completely dedicated to noodle soups. Ken came onto my radar when I was doing research for my homemade katsuobushi project. Elivin in the discord server pointed me to Ken's blog and his appearance on Japanese TV where he flew to Japan to learn to make katsuobushi at a real factory there. I thought it might. be fun to get him on the show to talk about his own katsuobushi experiments and his 2 years of research on noodle soups and his experience in Japan filming a documentary-style TV show. Ken is not a ramen chef or nerd like many of us, but his takes on food and the industrialization of food were fascinating. I had a great time speaking with Ken and I hope you enjoy the conversation as much as I did.
