Noma chef Rene Redzepi teamed up with Matt Goulding on a series for Apple TV+ that takes a closer look at the ingredients that define food.
Noma chef René Redzepi recently found himself at Whole Foods. In the “bar” aisle of the store, he was in awe of the optionality before him: packaged in compact rectangles were snacks and meals optimized for different nutritional needs.
“We knew we had to have some of those transformational, foundational ingredients that shaped human society,” says Goulding, who previously collaborated with the late Anthony Bourdain. “That’s rice in the East, that’s corn in the West, that’s salt all over. But also, what are the ingredients that may not be essential for living, but are certainly what make life so special for us?”The series takes viewers on a journey to meet the people who grow, harvest and transform each ingredient.
“Sometimes it takes two or three seasons on a lot of great shows before you start to feel the rhythms and the cadence,” says Goulding. Although the pair were only in New York for a few days, with little downtime between screenings and Q&As, they had collectively managed to make the most of their limited time. Redzepi had dinner at chef Vikas Khanna’s Indian restaurant Bungalow, a quick lunch at Superiority Burger, and stopped by Los Tacos No. 1; Cosme and Esse Taco had catered a post-screening reception at Metrograph.
