Heat

Heritage Radio Network and Modernist Cuisine are pleased to announce Modernist BreadCrumbs, a podcast collaboration airing in Fall 2017

Modernist Cuisine founder Nathan Myhrvold and head chef Francisco Migoya will join Michael Harlan Turkell on Modernist BreadCrumbs, a special series taking a new look at one of the oldest staples of the human diet—bread. Each episode will explore bread from a different angle; from its surprising and often complicated past, to the grains, tools, and microbes we use to make it, and the science behind every loaf. The show will include a look at the discoveries and techniques from Modernist Bread, as well as interviews with the scientists and bakers who are shaping the future of bread.
