PBS's Chef Pati Jinich Explores PanAmericana
Episode 109
Saturday, 11 October, 2025
Host Sandra Abrams has a lively conversation with James Beard Award winning chef, author, and TV show host, Pati Jinich. Pati shares insights on how she blends food, culture, and history into the making of her PBS docuseries, “Pati Jinich Explores Panamericana” - now streaming on the PBS app. In the series, Pati loosely tracks the “Pan-American Highway” where she travels from Alaska to Canada visiting the food scene in remote towns. In each episode, Pati weaves together culture, the history of migration, and food to help the audience understand what brings us together. In this conversation, Pati shares funny and colorful stories, including how her own family history of emigrating to Mexico from Poland helped her connect with the owner of a bagel and bialy stand in Alaska. The series reinforces that we often connect by sharing memories of the same family experiences with food. In addition to this three-part series, Pati has an Emmy-nominated public television series, Pati’s Mexican Table, which premiered its 14th season in September, and a James Beard Award-winning PBS primetime docuseries, La Frontera with Pati Jinich. Pati is also featured on the cover of Bethesda Magazine’s September/October issue, “Women Who Inspire: Meet local leaders who are making an impact now.” To learn more about Pati and her projects:https://patijinich.com/https://www.pbs.org/show/pati-jinich-explores-panamericana/https://www.pbs.org/show/patis-mexican-table/https://www.pbs.org/show/la-frontera-pati-jinich/https://bethesdamagazine.com/2025/08/28/women-who-inspire-2025/https://www.instagram.com/patijinich/Support the show---Subscribe to learn more about filmmaking, production, media makers, creator resources, visual storytelling, and every aspect that brings film, television, and video projects from concepts to our screens.
