From early trading in north Atlantic cod, to the phenomenon of gastronomical societies known as txokos which still prevail today, food has played an important role in Basque culture. In terms of originality and quality, Basque cuisine is considered amongst the best in the world. Dan Saladino speaks to Mark Kurlansky and Harold McGee to find out why. First broadcast on the Food Programme, 13 November 2016.
