    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.

    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.

    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.

      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.

    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?

    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.
