Folklore, Food, and Fairytales with Rachel

Folklore, Food, and Fairytales with Rachel

In this 11th episode of Fabulous Folklore Presents, I chat with Rachel, the part-time storyteller and food lover behind the Folklore, Food and Fairytales podcast.

The Folklore, Food and Fairytales podcast features storytelling & folklore with connected recipes and food history and the importance of honouring the stories despite how tenuous the link to the recipes becomes. As well as the podcast Rachel has a (nearly) weekly newsletter featuring snippets of folklore, history, stories, vintage recipes, remedies, herblore & the occasional cocktail.

In this interview, we chat about food history, food myths, and cheese pirates!

The book about cheese pirates that Rachel mentioned is A Cheesemonger’s History of The British Isles by Ned Palmer. The Italian stories mentioned are The Tale of Tales by Giambattista Basile.
