Many people would agree

that the Italians make the

best ice cream (don’t write

in), but where did this treat

originate and who was its

inventor? This fascinating

programme begins with the

story of the harvesting and

flavouring of snow thousands

of years ago to more recent

attempts to create a cold

snack. Salt was crucial for

keeping early versions cold

and ice itself became a

tradeable commodity before

mass refrigeration made

“gelato” ubiquitous. Rajan

Datar is joined by the Persian

cuisine expert Najmieh

Batmanglij, above, and the

Cambridge historian Dr

Melissa Calaresu. Ben Dowell
