05 Aug RP155: The Oils of Chile

Posted at 21:39h in Podcasts, ReMARKable Palate, Travel & Places by Chef Mark Tafoya

This week, we speak with Chef Pilar Rodriguez from Chile, who specializes in creating dishes to pair with the wines of Chile. She speaks with us about some special ingredients which are indigenous to this South American land, and how she incorporates them into her cooking. We then learn about the wonderful work being done in Chile to produce Avocado oil and olive oil, and how this South American land just may sneak up on the Mediterranean countries to become the preeminent producer of fine cooking oils in the world.
