Celebrity chef Pierre Thiam and author Lisa Katayama talk cookbooks, grains and West African cuisine.
about the grain that year, he caught the attention of Lisa Katayama, a former journalist and now his wife.
These days they live in Oakland — a move prompted by the pandemic — and have just welcomed their second child. And the new “Simply West African” his fourth cookbook, but the first they’ve done together, lands Sept. 19. Lisa Katayama, left, and chef Pierre Thiam have written the cookbook “Simply West African” on Thursday, Aug. 24, 2023, in Oakland, Calif. Fonio has so much to offer as a solution to the food system, climate changes and challenges. It’s an underutilized grain that’s disappearing. So it became a mission. Why can’t these grains become a world-class crop? Why are they disappearing? They’re nutritious, they’re drought resistant, they’re delicious.
Lisa’s from Japan and I’m from Senegal, and in spite of those differences, you realize that we have so much in common in the food world. Rice, fish, seafood a big thing in both our cultures. Some of the techniques of cooking and fermentation are also similar. So in the book, there are dishes — like fonio Japanese breakfast porridge — inspired by recipes from both worlds.It’s exciting. When Lisa and I met, we were just launching. Whole Foods was distributing our very first product, fonio grain.
After we created the demand, it was important that we also secure the supply, so that meant working with small farmers and communities. We commissioned milling equipment that post-harvest waste to single digits. It speeds up production from one ton per day to two tons per hour.The Ukraine War has created famine in Africa.
