In this mouth watering episode, Ixta shares with Jayda some phenomenal food stories including learning about indigenous cooking in the heart of the Brazilian Amazon, but also goes deep into her personal relationship with food, and how she learned to avoid the pressure to cook for social media and make viral recipes, but actually listening to her own body and developing food that truly nourishes her. Ixta also shares how she first learned to cook and how she draws on her unbelievable mix of cultural heritages of Mexico, Brazil and Italy, and the beauty of fusion. Ixta breaks down how to make cooking delicious food more easy, and why she wants people to feel more empowered to follow their own senses and tastes rather than recipes have to be dogmatic.
