    In Search Of Rosa Parks' Pancakes - The Sporkful

    In 2016, the Library of Congress posted Rosa Parks' personal documents online for the first time. Buried under postcards from Martin Luther King and lists of volunteers for the Montgomery Bus Boycott was a pancake recipe, written on the back of an envelope — which included the addition of peanut butter to the batter. On this week's episode, we visit Adrienne Cannon, a specialist in African-American history at the Library of Congress, to see the recipe firsthand. Then we travel to Detroit to share a meal with Mrs. Parks' nieces, who published their aunt's favorite recipes in their book, Our Auntie Rosa. Finally, I head to Nicole Taylor's kitchen to make those peanut butter pancakes.// Get 500+ more great Sporkful episodes from our catalog and lots of other Stitcher goodness when you sign up for Stitcher Premium: www.StitcherPremium.com/Sporkful (promo code: SPORKFUL).

  • MasterClass Cooking 101: How to Cook With 16 Different Oils, Plus the 5 Healthiest Cooking Oils Beyond olive oil and vegetable oil, there are many cooking oils to choose from, especially with the rise in popularity of health-driven oils like coconut, ghee, and avocado. It can be difficult to decipher which ones are best to use for sautéing versus baking versus frying. Some oils are neutral and good for subbing into any recipe, some are healthier than others, and some are best reserved for drizzling over finished dishes. Here’s an easy guide to help you understand them all. cancel

They appear in everything from salad dressings to marinades, and are especially useful for searing, frying, grilling, or sautéing protein. But fats and oils are not one-size-fits-all. Oils are a product of an extraction and pressing process. Oil comes from seeds and nuts, like sunflowers, almonds, walnuts, olives, avocados, coconuts, and even rice bran. Each type of oil has its own chemical composition, which means some oils are better suited for salads, while others will help you achieve that perfect sear on a steak. One of the most important factors to consider when choosing your cooking oil is its smoke point. cancel
