Indigenous Food with The Sioux Chef, Sean Sherman
Sunday, November 5 at 3pm
Join us for a conversation with Sean Sherman, chef, author and the co-founder of the nonprofit North American Traditional Indigenous Food Systems (NATIFS) and its Indigenous Food Lab. In addition to all his many accolades for his restaurant Owamni in Minneapolis, which was named the best new restaurant in 2022 by the James Beard Foundation, Sherman is the 2023 recipient of the Julia Child Award, recognizing those who have had an impact on the American culinary scene.
Mr. Sherman is a member of the Oglala Lakota tribe and will talk with JHC Board member Lori Fontanes about how incorporating authentic Indigenous recipes into our diets using native fruits, herbs and vegetables can provide both an education about our shared culinary heritage while also being more healthful and tasty. Copies of his cookbook The Sioux Chef's Indigenous Kitchen will be available for signing.
The event is free but registration is required. Sign up here.
