Milk Street Radio: Smuggling Baby Eels – The New Black Market

This week: Suitcases full of contraband. A smuggler who writes poetry in jail. And the chance to make thousands of dollars in one night. Reporter Otis Gray brings us the story of America’s eel fishing boom—and what happened when it got out of hand. Plus, Kenji López-Alt discusses the surprising science of salting scrambled eggs, and we make kefta in a creamy tahini sauce.
