This month, we inquire into the rising consciousness of what we eat, beginning with Denise Danielle T. Alcantara's search for heirloom rice in the Cordilleras. Yvette Tan sits down with food historian Felice Prudente Sta. Maria, who wrote about food before it was cool, and the Living team travels to the seaside to cook up a saltwater harvest.

 

Also: making Christmas ornaments out of straws, herb gardening equipment, The Halal Guys, Industriya Marikina, Miguel & Maria, and a recipe for tawilis and tomato pasta.
