About this Event
Please join us, Sunday, January 26, 2025, at 5:00pm PST, for an online presentation by Richard Foss on "The First California Cuisines"
None of the cooking techniques or popular items of either the first people of California or the Mission period are common today. Why? How did the native people survive, and how did the introduction of agriculture change their lives? What delicacies did the pleasure-loving Californian Dons enjoy in their haciendas, and why did their cuisine die out so quickly after the USA annexed the territory?
