On this episode of the Go Cry in the Walk-In podcast, Chef Cholo welcomes Lisa Zeitel of Epicurean Pantry, a specialty food purveyor and woman-owned organization driven by a love for exceptional culinary experiences.

Epicurean Pantry began during Lisa’s vacation celebrating her retirement amid the gorgeous waters of Greece, where she fell head over heels for the taste of black garlic during a delicious culinary journey.

Lisa shares some of the history of this unique preparation of an otherwise common ingredient, and explains how the process of making black garlic changes the taste and nutritional value of fresh, white garlic, and the ensuing health benefits black garlic offers. 

Lisa also talks about some of her favorite ways to enjoy black garlic, and how versatile it is from steaks, to pasta, to savory black garlic butter. Chef Cholo and Lisa also talk about the rise in popularity of black garlic thanks to trendy cooking and animated TV shows.
