70: Native California Recipes and Stories with Sara Calvosa Olson

 

Kristin and Molly speak with Sara Calvosa Olson about her new cookbook, Chími Nu’am and its inspiration, creation and message. Sara shares her food writing journey, thoughts on the title and cover and how the pandemic altered the book's approach and voice. She discusses why she calls it "an inconvenient cookbook" and what it was like working with her publisher and learning photography for its images. Finally, she talks about the best advice she received, the concept she returns to in times of doubt and the themes she wants to communicate with this work.

Hosts: Kate Leahy + Molly Stevens + Kristin Donnelly + Andrea Nguyen
