The Mind of a Chef
Narrated by Executive Producer Anthony Bourdain, The Mind of a Chef combines cooking, travel, history, humor, art and science into a cinematic journey, each episode capturing another glorious flicker from the mind of its subject and focusing on what it truly means to cook, think, create and live in the food-obsessed world that is The Mind of a Chef. - Навчання та стиль
Anthony Bourdain really did have a fantastic voice. He is missed.
And a way with words
He waxed poetic and only got better as his career went on
Tony was a gem and he's missed. He changed lives and didn't realize it, kinda like Mike Rowe
I appreciate pbs for posting these gems
Can we appreciate that Chef Brock is rocking a Casio calculator watch?
I think we must!
I rarely rewatch any show with the exception of Mind of a Chef!
Thanks for this series. Tony, you are truly missed ❤
This episode of Mind of a Chef was soo special. This history was powerful. IIRC This was still early days of appreciating what Grain Preservationist were doing.
Korean spicy pork belly with an extra serving of all the different kimchi is my go to order at three Korean restaurant
13:02 "benne" is sesame seeds, indigenous to Africa
In South Georgia I grew up eating “perlo” which I now know is perlou. I’m old so this word was what my ancestors called it. Usually it was rice cooked with a whole chicken. The chicken was cut up and boiled and then the rice put in and cooked. So good. Thanks for this show.
You must have had some sc blood in there somewhere. Perlo might be the best dish ever. Grew up eating a lot of chicken perlo, so good. Hoping John on new year's day. 😊
@@Sam-mu5xh likely so. 👍
Sean Brock is the real deal
That was an excellent video presentation. I actually live in the south and did not know the rich history of rice production. I think food take better when you know what it took to produce that dish. I want to eat each and everyone of the dishes that you all presented. 😊
Although there may be tragedy in your life, there's always a possibility to triumph. It doesn't matter who you are, where you come from. The ability to triumph begins with you. Always.
I always enjoyed burnt rice, I didn't know it was a crucial part of a dish!
The near-death experience brought new ideas to light.
Thank you, Chef!
That was fantastic! #moremore
i miss anthony bourdain
Chefs table wishes it was this good
Anson Mills has some amazing rice,grits and red peas!
He who knows himself is enlightened.
I love the rice gets lots of love
Great video
I'm inspired 😊
Carolina Gold seeds were from Madagascar...African origin. The West Africans taken as slaves were already familiar with the cultivation of this crop. Rice was an essential grain in their diet. To dismiss this and refer to the acculturation as being based in East Asia is a dismissal of the truth.
This is the response I was looking for. Absolutely correct!
Carolina Gold rice is NOT an Asian variety of rice but a variety of oryza glabiremma which is a species of rice indigenous only to Africa, and domesticated by Africans independently from the more widely known oryza sativa Asian species of rice. Europeans found Africans in places like West Africa growing vast fields of rice and took seeds and experienced growers to their colonies in the Americas. For the first couple centuries a variety of African rice that became known as Carolina Gold was the major rice grown in the US.
Brock's food has content. Never ate it, so I have to trust it tastes good, but I know it has content, and for this reason it is fascinating.
How dare you brush across Korean style boiled peanuts!!! Gonna need that recipe stat!!!
so where's the rice pudding?? such a delicious comfort food!
got to get a hold of some of that Carolina Gold rice these guys are braggin about. might be good
RIP Tony
The ants enjoyed the barbecue more than the family.

lol, pretty easy to make a lot of money in agriculture when you don't have to pay for labor.
Being a Boston transplant to N FL, we Bostonians tend to "leave the R's out of words that call for them. With that being said, I definitely struggle with a dish called "Pilau" that has NO R............... but y'all southerners pronounce it PiRlau🤣🤣🤣
I literally struggle with this, and cannot say it properly
Really some fru fru. Flowers and fake flavors. Save it. Hey come to Kentucky and I take u fishing. Fried potatoes. Is. Everything. In south
11:10 Oh no, he draining rice with colander. Haiyaa!
I went to look for this, living in South Carolina. It's ridiculously overpriced. I'll stick with my premium Basmati. $70 for a 10 pound bag?
I have watched a few episodes of this and I have a few questions:
1.) When was this recorded? was it originally on TV?
2.) For this to be about Southern cuisine it feels very white people focused. Is that intentional? Where is the diversity within Southern food shown? What about Black and Indigenous contributions? How is slavery sort of absent in these stories when its such an important part of how Southern food has been and continues to be built and explored?
^^ Black fragility on display
this is from 2013 and thankfully we have come along way since then, hopefully new series will focus more on different chefs
Would y’all be just as indignant if it were only blacks?
Exactly!
No..... because then it would be true. Why do you fear the truth?@@QEsposito510
When you are a descendent of those who were enslaved in the USA you certainly understand what goes into producing rice. Forget the money, forget the flavour...forget the romance. It was the whip, lash and chains. Not mentioning that here was a fail.
Rice was brought to Africa by traders coming from Asia to the Silk Road or from Southern east Asia .
Asian rice was, but Africa has its own separate indigenous species of rice.
Carolina Gold rice is NOT an Asian variety of rice but a variety of oryza glabiremma which is a species of rice indigenous only to Africa, and domesticated by Africans independently from the more widely known oryza sativa Asian species of rice. Africans were using their indigenous species of rice BEFORE Asiàn rice was introduced. Europeans found Africans in places like West Africa growing vast fields of rice and took seeds and experienced growers to their colonies in the Americas. For the first couple centuries a variety of African rice that became known as Carolina Gold was the major rice grown in the US.
A song can make or ruin a person’s day if they let it get to them.
that rice couldve been cooked better lol
Rice was brought by the Spaniards from the Philippines the year was 1521 when Magellan stumbled upon the Philippine islands since then the Manila Galleon sailed from the Philippines to the New World and back for many years
Carolina Gold is indigenous to Africa
This series confirms my belief that "celebrity" chefs are some of the most pretentious people on the planet
Right!😂
Want rice?.....steal an entire African tribe that has centuries of knowledge propagating rice and then Bam!!!
May want to look into who really took the tribe
@@rainman6080 no need, rewriting history is a crckr thing
China cultivated rice for thousands of years BC
China was growing Asian species of rice but Africa has its own separate indigenous species of rice.

The "Whitewashing" of the history and Culture is Amazing do what you want but give credit to those who literally put the Blood sweat and tears to create the culture and spirit that is Charleston and the low country
They discuss that in this very episode, and later in the season Brock goes to West Africa to retrace the history of what became southern cuisine.
They literally give credit.
Tell us you didn't watch the episode without saying you didn't watch the episode...
Came to comments before watchng and almost left.. I did not want to believe Anthony would lie or not be authentic. Glad yall commented back to OP
I don’t think you watched this video before commenting, at 7:32 they start talking about how rice came from West Africa
