Listen "04- A New Yorker's Pura Vida"
Episode Synopsis
Alicia Wilson Rivero will say she is a teacher and food enthusiast more than a chef. And for more than 10 years, in San Miguel de Allende, she has been making her mark as a food business mover and shaker with Pura Vida Cooking School, and now Deli-Q which offers an international menu of prepared foods. In this episode she chats with Margret about her journey from her early days in kitchens of Manhattan, to building this life that she loves in San Miguel with food, connection and nutrition being central to that "pura vida". As she's honed her craft in this environment, working with local suppliers and using local produce to create dishes with international flavor makes sense especially for a community that is increasing international.You'll hear about some particular plant foods of this semi-desert location, her love of chiles to transform any basic dish, and some other favorites she likes to teach about, especially to new residents.
