  1. Preserving Recipes: Zine-Making Keeps Gullah Geechee Culture Alive

    At an archives in Charleston, South Carolina, one day last month, a group of high school students sat around a table, newspaper clippings scattered before them. The articles, some decades old, described what a legendary…

  2. Meet "Cinchweed", my current favorite Mojave desert wildflower. It's beautiful, but even better, it's delicious! It has a lemony, cumin taste with a little spicy kick behind it. I've been snipping a few flowers here and there and adding them to meals here at the ranch.

    Shifting our diets to include more native plants requires a little research, but is a great way to diversify our diets and begin to shift towards more sustainable ways of living.

    Do you have a favorite uncommon edible native from your home?

    "The ways in which we have come to know, be, and connect has been influenced by three major scholars who have written extensively in the food studies circles . . . "

  6. IFA remains one of my favorite cooking shows

    BERLIN

    One of IFA’s enduring, endearing aspects has been how it takes place in a city with a rail transit network so extensive that I don’t have to think about traffic–an unthinkable notion at CES in car-clogged Las Vegas. Another is how it’s the only trade show I cover where I can legitimately say I head to the exhibits for the food.

    As I discovered on my first visit here in 2012, IFA’s combination of an exhibitor base heavy on appliance manufacturers with ticket sales to the general public motivates exhibitors to demonstrate how their products make tasty food possible by preparing some on the show floor and then handing out free samples.

    The more prominent companies exhibiting here make a production out of it, hiring chefs and setting up cameras around their cooking stations so attendees can hear the cooks explain the recipes (usually in German that, in my experience, Google Translate struggles with a bit) and watch as the magic happens.

    I’ve yet to get a bad snack this way, even if I’ve had to burn some calories standing around and waiting for a sample to come my way.

    (I might get a plate faster with sharper elbows, but the reputation of the U.S. in Europe is bad enough already without me shoving aside a local who paid €25 for their ticket.)

    This week, for example, I’ve returned to the Electrolux brand AEG’s exhibit multiple times for slices of pizza baked in a “PizzaExpert” oven that heats a cast-iron plate to about 640 degrees, allowing it to finish a pie in two and a half minutes with a crisp crust and puffy dough around the edges.

    I’ve also hit up the Miele and Bosch exhibits, both of which have the equivalent of small stages set up for their hired chefs, for fancier fare. The former provided the high point of my walking-around lunch Friday with a plate of a cut of grilled flank steak, drizzled with a green herb sauce and served atop a dollop of polenta.

    It can be inefficient to put together a meal one small plate at a time, but that’s a fundamental part of Washingtonian foodways–where “dinner” in the nation’s capital often means ethics-compliant hors d’oeuvres. So I don’t have a problem doing the same sort of thing in this other national capital.

    And seeing all of these culinary demos also reminds me of how much I love to cook, and how I’ll look forward to picking up a spatula or a set of tongs back in my own kitchen. Where I now feel compelled to make pizza from scratch, even if the hardware I use there will take a little longer than 2.5 minutes for a pie.

  8. This event combines two timely topics close to my heart -- #MaineFarms and #Palestine!

    Tomato Seed Processing Workshop

    Saturday, August 16, 2025
    1:00 PM to 3:00 PM

    #Frith =Farm
    61 Ash Swamp Road
    #ScarboroughME

    "Come to Frith Farm in Scarborough for an afternoon of learning, community building, and #DirectAction, as we lend our hands to harvesting and processing these sacred seeds.

    "Chloe Hettinger is a seed grower for the #PalestineHeirloomSeedLibrary's #SeedProtectorProject, a project rooted in #Battir, #Palestine and the United States.

    "She will begin the event by speaking about the importance of preserving #heirloom vegetables, fruits, and herbs, and hold a conversation for folks to explore and share their own inherited #foodways.

    "The hand-on portion of the event will include harvesting from a seed crop of heirloom tomatoes, processing the seeds from the fruit, and demonstrating the fermentation process that allows tomato seeds to be saved.

    "This event is in partnership with the Palestine Heirloom Seed Library, and is supported by the #RealOrganicProject."

  16. Trump & Co are now defunding a research project from the WSU Breadlab that seeks to create more nutritious and affordable grains. It’s in year 3 of 5.

    From the email:

    We have been ordered to cease spending on our Soil to Society grant, a 5-year, $10 million project funded through the USDA's Agriculture and Food Research Initiative's (AFRI) Sustainable Agriculture Systems (SAS) program. We are in year 3 of 5 of this multidisciplinary research effort where crop and soil sciences, food science, and health and medicine disciplines work to create more nutritious, affordable, and accessible whole grain-based foods with our target crops of wheat, barley, buckwheat, quinoa, peas, and lentils. This pause amounts to a $2.5 million dollar loss in funding for the project, including salaries for several Breadlab staff, and operating funds for our wheat, barley, perennial grains, and quinoa breeding projects.
