Army MWR Library Virtual Author Series: Chef Pyet DeSpain

🪶✍🏼 Army MWR Libraries invite you to a delicious virtual presentation with Pyet DeSpain, award-winning global private chef, Prairie Band Potawatomi Nation member, and the inaugural winner of Gordon Ramsay’s hit television competition Next Level Chef.

In her debut cookbook, Rooted in Fire, Chef Pyet shares her passion for Native American and Mexican American fusion cuisine. Learn how to work with nature in your own kitchen and incorporate Indigenous ingredients—from venison and bison to sunchokes, dandelion greens, and native berries—into sweet and savory dishes like Three Sisters Salad, Fry Bread, and Mexican Chocolate & Mezcal Cake. Discover how Rooted in Fire gives voice to Indigenous cultures, histories, and foodways through the universal language of food.
