Ballad of the food waste – Video of the day
Parts Unknown host hopes his new documentary, Wasted! The Story of Food Waste, will do just that. The movie will hit theaters on October 13, and now eager Bourdain fanatics can get an early look via this exclusive clip.
Chef Dan Barber of celebrated New York restaurants Blue Hill and Blue Hill at Stone Barns appears in the scene to prepare what Bourdain calls a “truly sustainable plate of food.” Barber, whose WastED pop-ups have put typically discarded ingredients on fine-dining menus in NYC and London, explains how scraps destined for a trash heap have influenced global cuisine for generations.
“Fishermen’s wives took the damaged and unsellable fish, and they created a big stew of all this reject fish and called it a bouillabaisse,” Barber says. “Prosciutto di parma: That pig is a waste-fed pig, but you don’t call it ‘waste pork.’
That’s why these dishes become so important, because they’re not sold as waste, they’re sold as what they are, which is delicious dishes.”
