Mind of a Chef

Latitude

South Korea and kentucky both lay along the same latitudinal line. The 38th parallel also spans Southern Spain and Italy, San Francisco, and generous portions of the American South. A similar terroir translates into some interesting crossing of cultures for chefs like Ed, as well as Stuart Brioza - who cooks Mediterranean dim sum - and Andrew Ticer and Michael Hudman from Tennessee's Hog & Hominy - who cook Memphis favorites imbued with Calabrian family traditions. A renowned geologist who has a hand in viticulture explains it plainly, and food history becomes a bit less mysterious.
