Cast Iron Rescue, Rehab, and Cornbread with Dr. Katie Hoffman

TennesseeFarmTable.com

Cast Iron, and Cornbread, are two staples of the Appalachian table. My guest is Dr. Katie Hoffman who describes how she and her husband Brett Tiller created a business called Vintage Kitchen, Cast Iron and Collectibles, and how they rescue and rehab cast iron and resell their finds at their cast iron pop-up clinics that they conduct from time to time in Tennessee and Virginia. They call these sessions they hold “Cast Iron Clinics”. They sell cast iron and ship it all over the country and will also take in your old, sad, probably rusty, and pitted heirloom cast iron, and will rehab it for you so it can be brought back to its useful life once again. Also, Katie is going to let us know how she makes her cornbread in a cast iron skillet. In Fred Sauceman’s potluck radio series, he his subject is “Gritty Bread”.
