NOVEL CUISINE: CANDY MEN: THE STORY OF SWITZER'S LICORICE
A part of St. Louis history, Switzer’s Licorice was founded by two Irish-American families, the Switzers and the Murphys, and made candy from 1888 to 1998. Candy Men: The Story of Switzer’s Licorice, written by Patrick Murphy, is the story of the business that started in an Irish tenement. As the class discusses the book, they will enjoy ouzo shrimp and feta, tarragon-Pernod braised chicken, fennel gratin, and licorice ice cream with anise cookies.
