Along with Slate's L.V. Anderson, Dan is hosting a limited-run food podcast for Slate called Table to Farm. Each week Laura and Dan pick a food, learn about it, cook it, and eat it.

Last week in episode 1 they covered seafood and made seared sea scallops. This week it's eggs, culminating with a frittata. They speak with renowned Princeton bioethicist Peter Singer about the ethics of eating eggs, then go to Bed-Stuy, Brooklyn to meet people raising chickens in their back yard to help feed the hungry.

Subscribe to the podcast in iTunes or via RSS, or stream the episode above. You can also find Laura's frittata recipe and read more about the episode on Slate.
