Owamni: A (r)evolution of indigenous foods
On the back patio at Owamni – the Minneapolis, Minnesota, restaurant owned by Sean Sherman and Dana Thompson – the late-evening sun cast my dessert in a natural spotlight. Marigold-coloured agave squash caramel cascaded slowly down the sides of a sunflower-seed cake the colour of sandstone, and a deep red berry sauce shimmered atop a maple chaga cake so earthy in tone, it felt as though it were plucked from the forest floor.

The Greatest Indian Takeaway
Taking away chow To Go, food bought ready to eat and take home, extends across delights sourced from many countries, not least of those is India. So, what do you reckon? Is Tandoori the greatest Indian takeaway? Or Biryani? Let’s stop this trivia; the zenith of Indian takeaways is more important than a bowl of chuck. Although forming a tiny item within meals, it’s one additive we digest every mealtime. I speak of pepper, which I will prove changed our world. Shriveled husks that became used as currency in Ancient Greece and the Roman Empire. These still serve as a means of payment, but their value has reduced. Anglophile legal systems employ the term peppercorn rent if the landlord doesn’t require a cash reward, like it’s for nothing! Believe me, the Indian takeaway of pepper was definitely NOT for nothing.

How much money can you make in a year selling vegetables? What kind of people are the ones who can keep selling vegetables?
My sister-in-law used to sell vegetables and I would go to her stall to help out whenever I could. After 6 years of selling vegetables, they bought a house for over 1 million dollars and a new car for 160,000 dollars. In their words, they had no problem making $150,000 to $200,000 a year selling vegetables. But when they got a house and a car, they transferred their vegetable stall to another business. What is the reason for transferring a stall that you know is profitable? Let me go to the market every day to buy vegetables to tell you the answer, but also to let people who intend to do this business have a reference.

Ajvar: The vegan 'caviar' of the Balkans
Just a decade ago, Melisa Hasanspahić from the eastern Bosnian town of Goražde could not have imagined that today she would be running a food production business based on a recipe she inherited from her mother. However, her life changed when she started selling jars of her homemade ajvar, a widely popular vegetable delicacy, which she had previously only gifted to her loved ones.

The return of Bali's lost 'superfood'
"Look at how fine those leaves are," said Dika Nanta, pointing up to the waving branches of a spindly tree. "They're so wispy that at first glance it's hard to imagine why Balinese people sometimes call this tree 'the broomstick of the gods'."

The surprising landscape of Indian Jewish food
East of the Hooghly River in the Indian city of Kolkata sits Barabazar, a wholesale market whose history goes back to the 18th Century. Everything – from spices, clothes and electronics to salvaged doors and second-hand furniture – is traded here. Amidst this bustling grid of roads, at the corner of Brabourne Road and Canning Street, sits the imposing Magen David Synagogue. Adjacent to it is the city's oldest existing synagogue, Neveh Shalom Synagogue.

Isso vade: The spicy snack that unites Sri Lanka
As the train pulled into Peradeniya Junction station in central Sri Lanka, the man sitting opposite me leapt out of his seat and leaned out of the window, placing his thumb and forefinger in his mouth and whistling loudly. A vade seller soon appeared outside, removed a basket from the top of his head and handed it to the passenger. The man quickly pulled out a fragrant fritter along with a small bag of fiery sambol, leaving money behind, and then passed the basket to other hungry passengers, who did the same before returning the basket back to the seller through the window.

Buenos Aires' unusual pizza topping
At a bustling counter inside Güerrín, a central Buenos Aires pizzeria, a young server in a red-and-white uniform dished out slices. Laid out before him was an abundance of thick, golden pizzas, their toppings a bright blend of green olives, red peppers and crispy melted cheese. The queue reached almost to the door, as he cut the portions with movements as lean and efficient as a juggler, the wedges disappearing in minutes.
