Roma ha expulsado a sus reyes y establecido la república, pero el antiguo rey, Tarquinio el Soberbio, no cejará en su empeño de reconquistar su corona. Tras el fracaso de la invasión de Veyes, el antiguo monarca se aliará con Lars Porsena, rey de Clusio, el cual conquistará o no conquistará Roma.Tras su liberación, Roma se vió debilitada y obligada a volver a subyugar a sus vecinos, en la gran Guerra Latina que concluirá en una gran batalla junto al lago Regilo.

Sin poder marchar sobre Roma tan fácilmente como esperaba, Porsena se preparó para rodearla y sitiarla. Las perspectivas de un asedio aterrorizaban a la gente, pues no tenían mucha comida en la ciudad y temían el hambre que no tardaría en llegar.Por tanto, los romanos tuvieron que distribuir la comida en porciones pequeñas, pero incluso así el hambre llegó pronto. Todos sufrieron la escasez de comida (todos excepto Horacio Cocles, pues los romanos cedieron un poco de su escasa comida para dársela: era esa la mejor forma que tenían de mostrar su gratitud por lo que había hecho por ellos, al privarse ellos mismos para recompensarlo a él).

It was such a treat to have Sara Jenkins on the TASTE Podcast, and this conversation really delivers. Matt has followed Sara's career for over a decade, dating back to her amazing restaurants Porchetta and Porsena in New York's East Village.

Valerius Publius, aka Publicola, topples the tyrant Tarquin with Brutus and founds the Republic on better justice than the Roman kings had exercised. Like his parallel Solon, his obsession with justice makes him seek the happiness of his own people all the way to his death.

I have always loved a good legend, filled with mystery and intrigue, and last year when I visited Chiusi, my friends were happy to tell me the story of Porsena the Etruscan King, who was as rich as he was benevolent. But whatever happened to his tomb?

Tijdens deze aflevering krijgt de oorlog tussen Porsenna en Rome een vervolg. Nadat Horatius Cocles, de eenogige, Rome had veiliggesteld van een Etruskische invasie is er nog één held nodig om de Romeinen te redden. Zijn naam is Gaius Mucius Cordus, beter bekend om de bijnaam die hij ontvangt na het verrichten van zijn heldendaad: Gaius Mucius Scaevola, de linkshandige. De aflevering bevat tevens een kritische kanttekening welke de legendarische verhalen van de Romeinse schrijvers plaatst in de historische context van een veranderend Italië omstreeks 500 v. Chr.

While in New York City to collaborate on a special dinner with her pal Sara Jenkins at Porsena, Cathy Whims made some time to visit with us, and man are we glad she did. This modest chef from Portland, Oregon (originally from North Carolina where she initially wanted to be a dancer) has been honing her touch with traditional Italian food there since the early 1980s. Her personal story and point of view compel, as do her recollections of the American chef revolution during her formative years. This one has a little bit of everything.

Eat Your Words is back for a brand new radio season! Host Cathy Erway welcomes chef and author Sara Jenkins to the studio chatting highlights from the book (co-authored with her mother, Nancy Jenkins), The Four Seasons of Pasta.

It’s irresistible to all and perfect for every occasion. Sara and her mom draw on their own background in Italy, where they’ve lived, cooked, studied, and worked in Rome and Florence, and on a Tuscan olive farm for many years. Presently the accomplished chef and owner of Porsena and Porchetta, two restaurants in New York’s East Village, Sara and Cathy round out the show discussing the inspiration for the book as well as the importance of improvising while you cook. Tune in for a wonderful show!

The daughter of a foreign correspondent and a food writer, Sara Jenkins grew up all over the Mediterranean, eating her way through its cultures and learning to cook. She began her kitchen under with Todd English at Figs in Boston, then went on to work as a chef in Florence and in the Tuscan countryside, as well as on the Caribbean island of Nevis, before returning to the United States. In September 2008, Sara opened Porchetta, a storefront in the East Village focusing on the Italian roasted pork, typically sold as street food. Her brick and mortar Porchetta has been wildly successful, receiving a four-star review from New York Magazine. In November 2010, Sara opened Porsena, where she draws on her Tuscan and Roman childhood with a pasta-centric menu. As Mario Batali put it, “She’s one of the few chefs in America who understands Italy and how Italians eat.” Tune in to hear all about Sara’s childhood living around the world, her path to the professional kitchen, and more delectable details from her life-long relationship with Italy.

On today's episode of THE FOOD SEEN, Louisa Shafia grew up Persian in 1970's Philadelphia. Her father was Iranian; pomegranates, pistachios, and saffron were aplenty in their household. It wasn't until working as a chef in San Francisco, that Louisa awoke the flavors of her heritage, recreating her version of “fesenjan” a sweet-and-sour stew accented with pomegranate molasses and ground walnuts. Impassioned by her family's past, she returned to Iran, did R&D in Los Angeles (the largest community of Iranian expats), and wrote “The New Persian Kitchen”. Still, Louisa wanted to further share her cuisine, opening a pop-up called Lakh Lakh at NYC's Porsena restaurant, serving such dishes as Sabzi Kordan (herb and cheese plate with barbari bread), Sambuseh (a crispy phyllo triangle stuffed with veggies, lentils, nigella seeds, served with a spicy tomato relish), Jujeh Kebab (chicken kebab in a saffron marinade), and Bastani Nooni (saffron ice cream sandwiches with cardamom wafers). Politics aside, this may mark the start of a new Iranian food revolution. This program was brought to you by S. Wallace Edwards & Sons.
