The Edible Valley Podcast – What does a chef think about on a snow day? Spring ingredients, new menus, culinary students, and the future of food in the Edible Valley. In this solo episode of The Edible Valley Podcast, Chef Jonathan Frazier takes advantage of a surprise snow day on Vancouver Island to reflect on the transition from winter to spring in the culinary world. With a quiet morning and a cup of coffee, Jonathan shares how this time of year is when chefs begin thinking about what’s coming next. From early spring ingredients like fresh greens, pea shoots, and asparagus to the creative process of building new seasonal dishes, this episode offers a behind-the-scenes look at how menus begin to take shape. Jonathan also talks about preparing for the upcoming PC1 culinary class in Port Alberni, the hands-on learning experience at Roger Street Bistro, and the importance of mentorship in developing the next generation of cooks. He also shares updates from the North Vancouver Island Culinary Association, including upcoming events and the value of building a strong culinary community across Vancouver Island. 🎧 Listen now #EdibleValley, #VancouverIslandFood, #FarmToTable, #ChefLife, #SeasonalCooking, #SupportLocalFood, #CulinaryCommunity, #FoodPodcast, #CanadianChefs, #SpringCooking, #PortAlberni, #Snowday
