We’ll hear the stories of chefs and home cooks alike who use only the freshest, purest natural ingredients—from organic foods to exotic fruits—to create delicious and unusual recipes. Crisscrossing the globe, we’ll find out how a couple in Maine have been changing the face of American farming with their cutting-edge cold-weather harvesting techniques; head to Lima, Peru where we’ll catch fish in the Amazon; and explore the incredible offerings of a garden in western France. Join us as we learn how local products and traditions influence cuisine around the world.
