The Art of Culinary Diplomacy and Eurasian Fermentation Traditions
Please join the Eurasia Club and the Culinary Diplomacy Club at The Fletcher School for a conversation with famed food scholar and author Darra Goldstein. The presentation and tasting will explore the use of food as a means of rapprochement between cultures. What is the value of a shared meal? Can an awareness of others’ foodways increase intercultural understanding even as it highlights fundamental differences?
The event will include a standing dinner reception with Moldovan cuisine and foods fermented in Ukrainian, Georgian, Russian, and Romanian styles. The fermentation tasting will be accompanied by commentary on the traditions and processes behind them. The event is open to the public. Please make sure to register via myFletcher to participate in the event in person.
