Pollinators and the Urban Forest
Louisiana Coastal Cooking is a new culinary project that celebrates the bounty of Southeast Louisiana and raises awareness about coastal restoration through the lens of food. This 13-part road trip will take you to small communities and out-of-the-way places - often by boat - to showcase the regional cuisine of the state's bayous and waterways prepared by chefs and home cooks.
Pollinators and the Urban Forest
Season 1 Episode 108 | 26m 46s | CC
This time on Louisiana Coastal Cooking we visit Houma to learn how pollinators are connected to our daily lives, from the food we eat, to the ecosystems that we depend on in the urban forest habitats of our cities. We’ll sample two dishes that reflect how plants sustain our cultural heritage - Curried Pumpkin and Corn Bisque with Crawfish and Andouille, and Satsuma and Rosemary Olive Oil Cake.
