The Menu: A new cookbook, fresh food from Gathering’s Café, and catering in the Windy City

Moving through all four seasons, Yurok homecook Sara Calvosa Olson tells a compassionate story about the flavors and food of her tribe through her new debut cookbook Chími Nu’am: Native California Foodways for the Contemporary Kitchen.

Menominee chef Jessica Pamonicutt’s catering company Ketapanen Kitchen will be getting a lot of visibility as a member of this year’s Chicago Bears Small Business All-Pros Team.

And part of the reconstruction at the Minneapolis American Indian Center is a totally revamped Gatherings Café with a new executive chef Vernon DeFoe (Red Cliff).

It’s all part of The Menu, Native America Calling’s regular feature on Indigenous food and food sovereignty — produced and hosted by Andi Murphy (Diné).
