‘Opening conversations about every link of the food chain’
A neat and relatively new bilingual (we have the English-language edition) magazine, Figo Collective explores sustainability, wellness and gastronomy through a lens of ‘alternative perspectives and multifaceted cultures’. Inside, vibrant photography and colourful illustration abound.
This second issue focuses on the ‘transformative power of culinary innovation’: Juliana Lareu introduces mycelium bricks; Rob Miller traces the evolution of MSG; Siddarth Chogle on the nutrition of sleep; Julia Soria takes a trip to Korea; Laura Marajofky reflects on motherhood in the hospitality industry; Amanda Jo Wildey on Peru's cacao revival; and Yoko Koba sees the plum transform into Japanese delicacy umeboshi.
