THNOC's Food Forum: Pig Tales 2023

From boudin and andouille to cracklins and cochon de lait, pork has certainly played a leading role in Louisiana culinary tradition. Pork is also the star of the thirteenth annual Food Forum, hosted by The Historic New Orleans Collection and Dr. Jessica B. Harris, esteemed food historian. The forum, taking place at Williams Research Center, is dedicated to exploring the culinary heritage of New Orleans and the Gulf region. Starting at 10 am, the forum will provide plenty of events aimed to educate and celebrate pork’s contribution to our culture with featured authors and historians, in addition to a cooking demonstration. A tasting of various pork dishes by distinguished local chefs will be offered at 5:15 pm. $100. Tickets must be purchased in advance. hnoc.org/foodforum.
