Chris Duffy：通过烹饪和品尝不同文化的食物，可以建立联系，开启新的对话，并对不同文化和历史有更深入的了解。 Sean Sherman：现代社会普遍缺乏对原住民食物的了解，这不仅是烹饪问题，更是文化和历史的缺失。我们需要重新认识本地和区域食物系统的重要性，学习原住民的传统农业、种植技术、食物保存等知识，并将其应用于现代社会。原住民食物并非仅仅是历史遗留，而是充满活力并不断发展变化的。许多现在被认为是“新理念”的饮食趋势，实际上是古老的原住民传统。我们需要将原住民食物的故事融入对美国（或北美）食物的理解中，认识到其在文化、烹饪和营养方面的丰富性。美味的食物可以让人们更容易接受新的想法和故事。营养不应该受地域或肤色限制，每个人都应该获得营养丰富的食物。食物是政治性的，控制食物就意味着控制人民。建立本地花园、培训厨师、更好地利用植物资源，这些都是赋予社区权力、控制自身命运的方式。人们应该从关注自己周围的环境开始，学习识别和利用可食用的植物。他的烹饪灵感来自于对当地环境和季节的观察，以及对特定时刻和地点的捕捉。土著农业拥有悠久的历史和丰富的多样性，需要保护和传承。人们应该学习识别和利用周围的植物资源，并传承祖辈的储藏食物的传统。目前，人们对土著食物和文化的关注度日益提高，这预示着积极的变化。学习历史，特别是了解原住民的历史和土地，对于理解原住民食物和文化至关重要。支持原住民食物主权的关键在于支持当地的原住民种植者和食品生产者。许多主要城市缺乏原住民餐厅，这需要改变。文化挪用是指利用他人的文化来牟利，这需要避免。放大原住民声音，对抗文化抹杀，需要媒体关注和人们的共同努力。学习原住民烹饪的关键在于了解当地的环境、社区和文化，并融合其独特的风味。持续学习和开放心态是成为更好的人的关键。 Chris Duffy：烹饪可以帮助人们建立与其他文化和历史的联系。 Sean Sherman：现代社会普遍缺乏对土著食物的了解，这不仅是烹饪问题，更是文化和历史的缺失，需要更多地关注和讨论。

What’s your favorite dish — and what culture originated that recipe? Whether you’re thinking about grilled cheese, burritos, curry, pho… (we would go on but we are getting too hungry) trying something delicious opens you up to new experiences and conversations. Sean Sherman, Oglala Lakota, is a chef and food educator who focuses on revitalizing and reclaiming indigenous food systems in a modern culinary context. In today’s episode, he shares how increasing access to indigenous food practices can liberate more than just your taste buds. Sean, also known as The Sioux Chef, uses Native American recipes as well as farming, harvesting, wild food usage, salt and sugar making, food preservation, and land stewardship techniques to feed and educate communities in the Minneapolis/Saint Paul area. His vision of modern indigenous foods have garnered him many accolades, including the 2018 Bush Foundation Fellowship and the 2018 James Beard Award for Best American Cookbook, and a 2019 James Beard Leadership Award.
