When Mark and Holly interviewed Abi Balingit, last July, to talk about her cookbook, Mayumu, Mark didn’t know Abi much at all – he just knew that he loved the book. Abi and Holly had met before and liked each other a lot. But since then, the three of them – and I – have spent a good amount of time together, much of it involving cooking. And Abi is just a joy to be around, and the way that she cooks seems effortless – it’s like breathing for her. So we were so thrilled when she recently won a James Beard award for Mayumu, for Emerging Voice. Emerging Voice, yes indeed! So of course we had to rerun our episode with her. And you can find her Fiesta Fruit Salad right here.
