The Mind of a Chef

Preserve

Season 2 Episode 5

Sean often describes how his family ate growing up this way: “If we were eating, we were eating food from the garden or the basement — it’s a way of life.” In this episode, Sean shows us what it means to be eating from the basement by exploring the preservation techniques that are critical components of southern culture: drying, salt curing, canning and fermentation.
