E14: "The Sioux Chef” Sean Sherman

Sean Sherman is a chef and founder of The Sioux Chef, a group of indigenous American ethnobotanists, food preservationists, adventurers and foragers, committed to revitalising Native American cuisine. After years of fieldwork and research into a lost knowledge base, Sherman and his wife Dana Thompson opened their first restaurant, Owamni, in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Serving solely Native American cuisine, Sherman hopes it will become a template to empower other indigenous communities to reclaim their lost food histories, not only in the US but also across the world.
