Butter Cows, Ugly Cakes and Blue Ribbons: Welcome to the State Fair!

Description

We dive into the world of state, county and agricultural fairs with Marla Calico to learn about their history, impact and why roast beef sundaes are all the rage at fairgrounds across the country. Plus, we head to the Iowa State Fair to meet the woman who carves cows out of butter and the kids striving to create the world’s ugliest cake. We also get a crash course in wine from sommelier André Hueston Mack and we make Eggplant and Tahini Dip.


Get this week’s recipe for Eggplant and Tahini Dip here.
