SLOW U: Chasing Chiles
Join Slow Food NYC and chef and author Kurt Michael Friese for an evening of all things chile at Jimmy's No. 43. Chef Friese will talk about his new book, "Chasing Chiles: Hot Spots Along the Pepper Trail" (Chelsea Green, March 2011), while you dine on chili served up by Jimmy's No 43.
In "Chasing Chiles," Chef Friese and his fellow gastronauts recount their year-long adventure across North America - from New Mexico, to Louisiana, to the Yucatan - in hot pursuit of heirloom chile varieties, chile cuisine and its long cultural traditions. From speaking with farmers, visiting the fields and eating in local diners across the continent, they explore how climate change is impacting not just this iconic spice and vegetable, but our producers, sustainable agriculture, and ultimately, what we eat.
