Learn the secrets of tomatoes and how they grow with Katie Battazzo. This kitchen-garden extraordinaire converts unused outdoor spaces into gardens that can produce bountiful crops of groceries. She teaches us how to plant and care for these plump, blushing babes and how much joy a ripe tomato brings.  Follow her journey at www.yesfrontyardfresh.com, or on IG @frontyardfresh. Stats referenced from Tomatoland by Barry Estabrook. Meredith's question about fish genes in tomatoes is answered here: https://www.motherearthnews.com/real-food/adding-a-fish-gene-into-tomatoes-zmaz00amzgoe/ Eggplant Caponata "Caponata has many forms and recipes. This one is from Joanie Cere, a woman of Italian descent, who used to help us sell at the farmers market. She would take all our market leftovers and return the next week with this deliciousness. Quantity can be adjusted depending on how many baking dishes you own and how much eggplant is starting to wither in your fridge. These amounts are approximate and fill a 13 x 9 x 2 Glad baking dish." Chop into 1 inch cubes: 2 medium Eggplant (peel skin off) 4-5 Peppers, stemmed and seeded 6-8 medium Tomatoes 1-2 medium Onions Also: 6-8 whole Garlic cloves One 8 oz jar Italian type Olives 1/2 - 1 cup fresh Basil One tbsp dried Oregano 1/4 cup Olive Oil (veggies should be coated) 1/2 tsp Sea Salt Throw everything in a baking dish and toss with ample olive oil, sprinkling with salt. Roast in the oven at 350 for two hours. Stir occasionally. Once all the moisture has evaporated, caponata will look and taste like the tapenade you love to buy at Trader Joe's for six dollars. It's a great way to use up a bunch of veggies at once. You can pack it in oil and store in the fridge for months. Check out the Next Ingredient website at www.nextingredientconsulting.com.

She shares how beloved cumin has been throughout time, even being spread from culture to culture via the Silk Road. This was an ancient trade route between the east and west. Cumin has been used in place of money, for mummification (!!), for beauty treatments, and - well we're not going to put all of Neha's inside knowledge on here! Just press play! One of Neha's go-to condiments: Yogurt, diced cucumber, a bit of salt and a teaspoon of ground cumin. Follow her Instagram account, @onthe_silkroad and visit her website at www.onthesilkroad.com.

Entomophagy: the practice of eating insects. "Over two BILLION people regularly include insects in their diet, not as a last resort." After Tansha shares how her journey around insects as a food source began, she briefly explains the cultural nuances around insect eating in India.

Meet Rosie Itti Westlund, a one-and-a-half generation Asian American (born in Thailand and grew up in the states) whose family brought Thai restaurants to the Olympic Peninsula. Currently the owner of two successful Thai restaurants in Bend, Oregon, Rosie teaches us all about fish sauce and why she puts it on everything. Buckle up...this one's packed! Check out her restaurants, Wild Rose Thai (@wildrosethai) and Sen (@senthainoodles). Laab Is All You Need Cocktail by Natalee Eisenberg 2 Cucumbers 5 Mint leaves 5 Cilantro tops 2oz Infused Thai chili & cucumber vodka 1oz Lime 3/4oz Shallot simple syrup 4 Drops Fish Sauce In a shaker, gently muddle cucumber, cilantro, and mint. Combine the rest of ingredients, shake gently with ice. Double strain into a chilled Old-Fashioned glass, fill with ice and garnish with a sprig of cilantro and cucumber slice. Yum Kai Dao 4-6 eggs (dependent on serving size) 1 small shallot 1-2 Thai chilis, chopped (dependent on spice preference) 1/2 cup Chinese celery 1/2 English cucumber 1 cup green leaf lettuce 1 cup sliced Chinese sausage (optional) 2 limes 4 tbsp fish sauce 2 tbsp palm sugar (or substitute granulated sugar) 1/2 cup vegetable oil In a pan, heat 1/4 cup vegetable oil until very hot. Crack eggs into the pan and cook until over medium-hard (personal preference but with this dish the yolk should not be overly runny). The edges should get very crispy and bubbly. In Thai food, fried eggs should definitely be on the crispy side and not cooked low and slow. Turn off heat and lay eggs over a paper towel to drain and set aside. In the same pan, add the remaining 1/4 cup of vegetable oil and bring heat back up to high. Once sizzling, add sliced Chinese sausage and fry until crispy and deeper in color. Prepare vegetables by slicing the Chinese celery, cucumber, shallots, and lettuce, keeping everything separate. In a medium bowl combine fish sauce and sugar. Juice limes directly into the mixture. Alter according to taste and preference but dressing should be equally tart, salty, and sweet. On a plate, arrange chopped lettuce and fried eggs on top. In the bowl of dressing, add in friend Chinese sausage, celery, cucumber, shallots, and chopped Thai chilis and mix gently. Pour everything onto the plate of eggs and lettuce. Serve and enjoy!
