Jaime E. Love 3 days ago

The consensus among the staff of the Food desk and NYT Cooking is that February lived up to its reputation, bringing with it a bitter cold for many of us and, for some, a lot of snow. But we cooked on, and we made dishes that comforted us. Some of the recipes we whipped up are old standbys, while others made their debut just a few weeks ago. We enjoyed putting them to the test in our kitchens, and we hope you will, too.

Shola Olunloyo is putting Nigerian food in culinary spotlight

Jaime E. Love 3 weeks ago

In 2017, I was invited to participate in a festival at the Culinary Institute of America — the Hogwarts of chef schools is how I have since came to understand it — called “Worlds of Flavor.” This was the first time I had the opportunity to cook alongside other chefs of color — specifically, Black chefs with African roots, cooking African food at a level that would inspire and command me to step out of my comfort zone.

It was there that I met Shola Olunloyo, the 45-year-old Nigerian wizard of gastronomy who secured the first-ever residency at the nonprofit
