Food Along the Lewis and Clark Trail
| In this talk Sohn will
explore the domestic side of the famous expedition to the Pacific, which left
St. Louis in May 1804 and returned in September 1806. What did the Corps of
Discovery — some 30 people strong — eat during the 28-month trek to the Oregon
coast and back? Sohn will offer recipes used by the explorers and the Indians
who assisted them. Historic foods will be updated for today's kitchen. If the
spirit of culinary exploration seizes your group, Sohn will provide recipes in
advance so you can prepare an authentic meal or snacks for the talk. For more information, visit the Kentucky Humanities Council Speaker's Bureau. |
