Chef's Sourcing & Quality Tips:

• Produce & Aromatics: Always use fresh whole aromatics and seasonal herbs rather than dehydrated powders when possible.
• Cooking Oils: Utilize cold-pressed oils with appropriate smoke points such as extra virgin olive oil or avocado oil.
• Salt & Seasoning: Season from a modest height above the pan to ensure an even, uniform crystalline dispersion.

Follow these sequential steps with careful attention to sensory cues and cooking temperatures:

Step 1: Technique & Execution

Combine vegetables with grains in one meal ; fruit with grains in another meal. 8

Step 2: Technique & Execution

Avoid “one-sided” meals; such as all (or mostly ) concentrated foods, or all (or mostly ) juicy, less concentrated, foods. 10

Step 4: Technique & Execution

Obtain foods as fresh as possible from garde n and orchard, and include an ample supply of raw foods with every meal.
