This week on Weekends with Yankee, senior food editor Amy Traverso visits Worcester, Massachusetts, where she meets the husband-and-wife duo running the doughnut shop Glazy Susan, followed by a trip to American Vinegar Works, where she picks up some artisanal vinegar. With that in hand, she heads to the restaurant Deadhorse Hill, where executive chef Jared Forman shows how to cook pork katsu curry. Then, it's off to southern New Hampshire for adventurer Richard Wiese's journey up famed Mount Monadnock. Joined on the trek by Everest climber Paul Giorgio, Richard highlights everything you should pack in your backpack for a climb such as this, particularly in winter, and along the way we get a glimpse at the different types of people who take on a challenge such as this one. Finally, we make our way to Bethlehem, New Hampshire, to meet the owners of Wozz! Kitchen Creations and explore the flavors and techniques that make their spreads and sauces so special.
