The Perennial Plate

The Perennial Plate  is a two-time James Beard Award winning online weekly documentary series dedicated to socially responsible and adventurous eating. Chef and Activist, Daniel Klein and Filmmaker Mirra Fine are traveling the world exploring the wonders, complexities and stories behind the ever more connected global food system.

The key to a vinaigrette is a certain amount of acidity, sweetness, salt and oil. It's fun to try other ingredients on salads beyond vinegar or lemon juice.
From Daniel Klein of The Perennial Plate. Peppery watercress leaves give this soup its amazing flavor and bright green color. Grilled shiitakes on top are meaty and delicious. Check out the recipe and video.
I gotta say—I love Arkansas and the people who live there. Yes, that may be a broad generalization of the state and its residents, but the overwhelming love and enthusiasm we have received has been truly amazing.
In a week (May 9th), I'm heading off on a six-month adventure to document, share and enjoy some of the good, real food in this country. I look forward to meeting many of you on the road!
