The Mind of a Chef

Roots

Sean Brock's first exposure to cooking was at a young age. Born and raised in rural Virginia, his family grew their own food, and this left a deep impression. In this episode, Sean explores his roots, prepares a typical Appalachian dinner, cooks chicken dumplings with his mom, throws down with Chef Joseph Lenn at Blackberry Farms, and learns how to make fried okra and country ham on the farm.
