Hulu made the announcement at Television Critics Association summer press tour.
“Each 30-minute episode will start with a single dish that represents and connects a community’s history and traditions, and explores the evolution of that community through that cuisine. The show, filmed around the country, will showcase everything from street food to high-end restaurants
“In the hands of different families and waves of immigration, an organic evolution emerges between traditional recipes and new approaches, different perspectives and emotions, all captured thru Padma’s eyes,” read a statement from the streamer.
