The Food Imperative

Episode Summary

Conch fritters, Jimmy Dean, and the captain’s chicken, the most important part of any journey begins in the stomach. It’s the food imperative.

Episode Notes

Scott explores the link between food and sailing. The desire for spices to preserve and flavor food drives the Age of discovery. That desire to travel further and faster for trade is accompanied by technical achievements in sailing. The most important commodity in the world for the longest time was pepper. Scott talks about today’s modern refrigeration systems for boats. He also delves into some special recipes for conch and the old standby “The Captain’s Chicken!” Yummy!
