“I love food. Living I’m California, we’re spoiled with fresh fruit, so I try to honor it as much as possible. I love perfect summer produce. I’ve been eating lots of pluots, a delicious and somewhat obscure stone fruit hybrid.”
“What’s a pluot?”
“It’s a plum and apricot. It has the best qualities of each fruit – sweet flesh, juicy and tart. The best ones have exotic names to match, like, ‘Flavor King’ or ‘Flavor Grenade’. I’m usually enamored with what nature dictates is at its best at the moment. Along those lines, I’ve been eating lots tomatoes and peaches with mild and soft cows cheese like mozzarella, burrata or ricotta. Tear some basil, add olive oil and sea salt…glorious.”
“You do love food, is it just a hobby or are you in the food industry?”
“I’m an editor for an online magazine called Nopalize.com. Our mission is to help people deepen their connection to food because food is the lens from which I view the world, and can best affect change.”
