First, she grew up in California during height of the food revolution that brought great unapologetic quantities of fresh produce, herbs, olive oil, and garlic to the state's once-distinct cuisine. Her food reflects these roots - she seeks out and knows how to identify the most flavorful, brightest ingredients, and she puts them to work in her recipes by bringing their flavors and textures forward. The second thing to know about Cindy is that she's as serious about traveling as she is about eating. This makes the two activities sound as if they are separate, but for someone who loves to eat as much as Cindy does, travel is no small part about taste. Whether it's Mexico, where she spent time as a student, India, Morocco, Thailand, France, Spain, or Italy, Cindy tastes, eats with gusto, observes, and learns. This process of change, the gathering of knowledge, is reflected in the food she cooks and serves at Ucross and it is represented here in her recipes, which she borrowed from around the world and made fresh by making them her own." -- from Introduction.
