On The Pass Gabriel Ornelas

When was the last time you ate Korean food at your local Koreatown, enjoyed a K-drama on your favorite streaming service, or flipped open TikTok to a viral sensation soundtracked by a famous K-pop band? Have you noticed the impact of Korean cuisine and culture on our world? Maybe you're noticing it now, or perhaps you're already a citizen of Koreaworld, deeply connected to the culture.
 
Our next two guests, Deuki Hong and Matt Rodbard, are true citizens of Koreaworld—global ambassadors with a deep love, passion, and appreciation for Korean food and culture. Their recent book, titled Koreaworld: A Cookbook, encapsulates this passion with over two years of travel specifically for this book and close to a decade of exploration.
 
Deuki is a Korean-American executive chef and owner of The Sunday Family Hospitality Group in San Francisco. Matt is a writer, editor, and author of food and culture books with more than two decades of experience. He's also the co-host of This Is Taste podcast. Together, 10 years ago, Deuki and Matt co-authored the New York Times Bestseller Koreatown: A Cookbook.
 
As they both witnessed the continued influence and impact of Korean culture worldwide, they were compelled to follow up their first book with Koreaworld: a story about vibrant people, community, and brilliant recipes. You're about to listen to the story of a culinary revolution.

This is an episode rerelease from our On The Pass archives. We hope you enjoy!
 
Can chefs step up and takeover our broken food system? Chef Dan Barber thinks they can and should. Dan is the Co-owner of Blue Hill and Blue Hill at Stone Barns, author of The New York Times Bestseller "The Third Plate", and Co-Founder of Row 7 Seeds, a company developing and exploring new varieties of vegetables and grains.
 
We dissect today’s broken food system and take a deeper look at the current state of our farms, how the seeds today have been modified for high yield rather than grown for nutrition, and how his company Row 7 Seeds is looking to combat that by breeding organic seeds that result in maximum nutrition and flavor.
 
Dan is someone who is deeply committed to the concept that better ingredients means better health for ourselves and for our lands. He also is adamant that chefs can be the vehicle to help change our world. Honest, open, and quite the conversationalist, this episode is not to be missed.
