How Philly Changed Ice Cream

Ice cream was invented more than two thousand years ago, but 19th-century Philadelphians played a significant role in revolutionizing the process. So how come we don’t know about them? Host Trenae Nuri talks with food historian and co-host of the City Cast Las Vegas (lasvegas.cityc...) podcast Sarah Lohman ( / fourpoundsflour ) about Philadelphia-style ice cream, and the women and Black culinary professionals whose innovations made it what it is today.
Check out Sarah’s latest book, “Endangered Eating: America's Vanishing Foods.” (bookshop.org/p...)
We also mentioned the Netflix series “High on the Hog: How African American Cuisine Transformed America” (www.netflix.co...) based on the book (bookshop.org/p...) by Jessica B. Harris.
