What if the first celebrity chef wasn't from our modern era, but from the 17th century? In this episode, we journey through the life of Robert May, whose culinary genius and flamboyant dining spectacles turned him into a historical icon. Born in 1588, May's culinary voyage began in his father's kitchen, but it was his travels to Paris to learn French, Spanish, and Italian that truly set him apart. We explore his unmatched ability to create dining events where frogs leaped from pies and birds extinguished candles, revealing how these dramatic experiences captivated his audience and made dining an unforgettable adventure. We also take a peek into the fascinating etymology of food names, illustrating the social dynamics of Norman England through terms like 'cow' and 'beef.'
From eggshells filled with rose water to mock battles with pastry castles, May's culinary artistry knew no bounds. We delve into the extravagant feasts he orchestrated, like life-sized pastry deer filled with wine for a startling effect. This episode also touches on his pioneering role in publishing one of the first culinary books, cementing his legacy in the world of gastronomy. As a whimsical twist, we reminisce about the classic game Oregon Trail, highlighting its ironic portrayal of pioneer life with a humorous touch. Finally, we reflect on the joys and challenges of modern living, celebrate foodies everywhere, and share how you can support the show. Tune in for a blend of history, culinary spectacle, and a touch of nostalgia!
