Monday, January 20

12 pm "The Farm & Foodshed Report." Today's show, "The Chicken and the Egg," covers the impact on egg producers in our area of the impending implementation of Proposition 2, by the end of 2014. California egg producers who use cages are transitioning their operations. Their ability to survive economically may be jeopardized by the King Amendment to the pending Farm Bill. This would nullify Jared Huffman's legislation, AB 1437, which mandates that any eggs sold in California must meet the standards set forward by Prop 2. The right to 'spread your wings' is now tied to a States' rights issue that is making for politically strange bedfellows.

Following lunch will be a conversation on the importance of creating a bridge between cooking and health care.

 

"There's a need for food to be part of the health care and environmental conversation," says Rebecca Katz MS, a nationally recognized expert on the role of food in supporting health for the chronically ill. She is the author of the cookbook, The Cancer-Fighting Kitchen, and the founder of the Healing Kitchens Institute at Commonweal in Bolinas. The Institute teaches health care providers and interested cooks how to translate nutritional science directly to the plate through taste and flavor. "I translate nutrition into tasty bites of 'yum,'" she explains.

 

Mollie Katzen's latest book, The Heart Of The Plate: Vegetarian Recipes for a New Generation, is a sparkling repertoire of 250 ultra-flavorful, unfussy vegetarian dishes that exemplify the way Katzen cooks today. An award-winning illustrator and designer as well as a cookbook author for both adults and children, she has been inducted into the James Beard Hall of Fame.
