PCC Cooks instructor Kanako Koizumi demonstrates how to prepare Chikuzenni (Chicken and Root Vegetable Stew).

This cooking demonstration is in conjunction with the Burke Museum's exhibit “Hungry Planet: What the World Eats.” Hungry Planet examines how people from different countries and cultures feed their families, through photographs of 10 families from around the world at home, at the market, and surrounded by a week’s worth of groceries. The exhibit also features “Salish Bounty: Traditional Native American Foods of Puget Sound,” which explores 5,000 years of traditional tribal diets, as well as the revitalization of native food traditions.
