Meet the Kitchen Cabinet, 13 cooks who will be sharing their global recipes in the next year
“Charleston doesn’t have this food or that food” is a common complaint from residents who want the city to be as cosmopolitan as they are. But in many cases, the wished-for food has a local presence — it just isn’t served in restaurants.
To give readers an opportunity to sample global foods that aren’t easy to find in the Lowcountry, we’ve invited 13 talented home cooks from various cooking traditions to join our new "Kitchen Cabinet." Each member will contribute four recipes over the coming year, providing some sense of the seasonal aspects of the showcased cuisines. Members also have been asked to use local ingredients whenever possible, so you can create a South American, African, Asian or European meal from what you buy at your favorite farmers market.
For more on the Charleston area cooks who will be broadening culinary horizons in the year ahead, and their suggestions for how to approach their recipes, read on:
