No Colonial American has contributed more to our understanding of nature and science than Benjamin Franklin. From electricity to ecology to the Gulf Stream – and let’s not forget bifocals, we have Franklin to thank for its discovery. And that’s in addition to being one of our Founding Fathers. What a resume! In this episode, we salute Benjamin Franklin by preparing a favorite French dish of his, Vol au Vent with Sweetbreads, Beef and Pork Pie, and Sweet and Sour Red Cabbage.
