- Society & Culture
Welcome to Political Food, a podcast and recipe book of how human conflict has shaped cuisine. Adding dissident to dessert, campaigns to confectionery, separatism to spaghetti, patriotism to pastries, revolution to ravioli… you get the point. This is the history of war, power, technology and immigration as told through food. Every episode is both a recipe and a story.

Ep 2: Hertzoggies
This dessert is a pastry base filled with jam and covered in a coconut meringue. They are delicious and we’re definitely going to be making more of these. Their political ties are to a former Prime Minister of South Africa — JBM Hertzog ( time in power: 1924-1939) — who’s policies further entrenched segregation and limited the rights of black and colored South Africans.
