EVER WANTED TO LIVE IN THE GILDED AGE? If you don't know what the Gilded Age is, it was the time period between the 1870s and 1890s when masses amount of wealth were accumulated and spent by the captains of industry who jumped on the industrialization wave. They were the tech bros of their age, really. Food writer and research historian Becky Libourel Diamond has created The Gilded Age Cookbook: Recipes and Stories from America’s Golden Era, where she dishes up delicious recipes seasoned with side stories about the excesses of this fascinating era. It is a FANTASTIC book and I've enjoyed it immensely and can't wait to try some of the recipes. She joins me at 1 to talk about it. You can buy it here.
