Episode 133: An Eater's Guide to the Caribbean

It's time for a midwinter break here at the Splendid Table, so we're off to the Caribbean for some sun, white sand beaches, and warm breezes. It's high season there and we've enlisted the help of veteran travel writer Douglas Cooper, who has the word on finding great local food, hotels, and restaurants worth a splurge, plus an insider's tip on the guest-house bargain of the islands.

It's a Rhode Island "wiener up the arm" experience for Jane and Michael Stern, kitchen designer Deborah Krasner talks "seduction" gear, and our favorite food scientist Shirley Corriher gives us the definitive method for perfect hard-boiled eggs. Shirley's recipe for Deviled Eggs with Caviar is a more sophisticated take on this Southern classic. Lynne has her usual trivia question and talks with a caller from the Culinary Institute of America at Greystone.
