Welcome to our Chefs of Blue Zones American Kitchen Series, where we will be celebrating some of the incredible chefs who have shared their brilliance with us in this first-ever look at plant-slant American cooking from yesterday to today. Born to the Oglala Lakota Sioux tribe in South Dakota's Pine Ridge reservation, Sean Sherman (@the_sioux_chef) moved to Minneapolis as a young adult and has worked to bring back Indigenous foods and disseminate them throughout his community. He is co-founder and co-owner of the @siouxchef, @natifs_org, @indigenousfoodlab, @owamni, and @bipocfoodways. This past June, the James Beard Foundation named Owamni the best new restaurant in the United States. You'll find his recipes for Stuffed Squash Halves with Blueberry Wojapi and Lion's Mane and Nettle Tamales with Plum Sauce in The Blue Zones American Kitchen out December 6th.
