In time for the holidays, a conversation about the holiday dishes that have long been a part of Maine’s cultural heritage. Do you have a tourtiere that would make a Frenchman cry? Do you have a family fruitcake recipe to brag about?  Do you make your own finnan haddie?

Guests:

Peggy Grodinsky, food editor for Portland Press Herald and the Maine Sunday Telegram; former editor of Cook's Country magazine.

Nancy Harmon Jenkins, food writer, cookbook author, food historian, culinary traveler

Rev. Paul Dumais, pastor at St. Rose of Lima Church in Jay and at St. Joseph in Farmington, baker, food evangelist
