The internet, once again, is finding gourmet magazine Bon Appétit deeply distasteful. According to Business Insider, the Condé Nast publication has been under fire for failing to include content from diverse peoples and cultures of color. Now, readers say its recent recipe of traditional Haitian dish soup joumou is wildly inaccurate. In fact, the recipe came from chef Marcus Samuelsson's cookbook 'The Rise.' He says his soup, which calls for non-Haitian ingredients such as maple syrup, was only 'loosely inspired' by soup joumou. The food magazine updated its recipe and re-wrote its byline after hundreds of one-star reviews, along with critiques on Twitter and Instagram.
Brussels, Nov 17 (EFE) .- (Camera: Leopoldo Rodríguez) "Depth and personality" are key for Belgian master chocolatier Pierre Marcolini (1964) who, to the savoir-faire of the Belgian chocolate tradition, adds his commitment to sustainability and ethics to be recognized, as he explains to Efe after he was recently awarded the title "Best Pastry Chef in the World".FOOTAGE OF PIERRE MARCOLINI WORKING.SOUNDBITES OF PIERRE MARCOLINI.Translation:1.- "This title is awarded based on your career, your vision of pastry and your vision of what the 21st century will be like."2.- "Nowadays, pastry chefs are committed to reducing the amount of sugar, removing part of the alcohol, working with local products, instead of having butter that comes from no one knows where, or using sustainable flour."3.- "Today, in the world, there are more than 2 million children working in cocoa plantations. People look the other way, but it is a reality."4.- "When I was 9 or 10 years old, I had already traded my toys, my fire engine, my police car, my plane ... for desserts."5.- "And now I live my passion, I am happy about it, I adore the world of sweets."6.- "Cocoa beans are part of my profession, but also nuts, almonds, hazelnuts from Piedmont, in Italy ... My profession is to make the most of the products that nature gives us."7.- "What is my signature? The signature of the Marcolini house is to have chocolate with depth. I like it a lot when I have finished chewing the chocolate and it stays with me when the taste lingers in the mouth."8.- "What I would like is to have a chocolate that actually bears a signature, that has personality. You get this with well-selected cocoa and trying to put the minimum amount of sugar in it and, above all, to have it really linger in the mouth. ... I can't give away all my secrets."9.- "If we are able to have exceptional quality, with a process that allows us to move it 10,000 km, then we can begin to grow it."10.- "It does us good, we are very happy. Christmas is coming and we face it with a little more optimism."11.- "In the current climate of the Covid pandemic these are hard, difficult times, but it has given us a bit of light and clarity, and that is good. We are talking about something else."
Valencia (Spain), Jun 10 (EFE).- Chef José Andrés organized on Wednesday with his World Central Kitchen NGO a food hand out in Valencia's Mestalla stadium, where he spoke to press about Spanish politics and the protests in the US.FOOTAGE OF JOSE ANDRES.SOUNDBITES OF JOSE ANDRES.Translations: "Feet on the ground, hands up and start and cover the people's basic needs. That's what all the politicians' mission should always be. Fewer speeches, which never lead to anything, and taking more action in resolving the problems people need resolving. If this was done, Spain would be a lot better off.""I think there comes a time in which we start seeing too much that the messages we keep getting from our politicians are very rarely about unity and action. They are messages of: look how bad you are and you are even worse. I think, that in these times, people want messages of empathy, of 'I don't have the same opinion as you, but let's find common ground. I think that when it comes to hunger, everyone should be on the same page. Should any Spaniard go hungry in times like these? If a party thinks otherwise (that people shouldn't be hungry), then they should have room in Spain, full stop.""You have a right not to be killed. I think there is racism in America (US), there's racism all around the world, there's racism in Spain. What's happened in the US is brutal, because many people have died at the hands of police. It doesn't mean all police officers are bad or that all protesters are bad. When you see fire and destruction and cameras are filming it looks like a war. I would say, that in general, people (protesters) have been really good in the US and that what happened the other day with President Trump getting rid of people with rubber balls and tear gas was totally unnecessary and I was there two hours earlier and people couldn't have been more peaceful, and for a leader to appear in front of a church with a bible, which he has never opened... people are going to study that for years."
