Freegan Chef Dumpster Dives

Roberto Freddi and Niamh Scott show us how to prepare a vegetarian meal in this video called “Freegan Kitchen: Episode One” after dumpster diving for food. The appetizer was made from spaghetti squash and was a spaghetti salad presented prettily in its shell. The main dish was marinated artichokes, beets and turnip served with a cranberry and date puree.

• Roberto used baking soda and water to wash the produce and they assure us they washed themselves as well as the food after their dumpster diving adventure

• The vinaigrette was made with fresh organic chives found in the dumpster, vinegar and fennel seeds, ground ginger, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, olive oil and salt and pepper.

The end result ended up looking beautiful. It is a very good instructional video and I think it is amazing such a great gourmet meal was made from food all found from dumpster diving.
