Magazine F #1, Salt
Magazine F is a food documentary magazine cocreated by B and Baemin, a Korean food delivery unicorn startup. Each issue introduces one ingredient that has had a significant impact on the table around the world, with particular focus on how everyday ingredients are produced, how they are used from region to region, what the economic impact is, and how chefs handle each ingredient. In short, F encompasses the past, the present, and the future of food culture.
This first issue of Magazine F takes the reader on a journey to understand the history and tradition of salt. From salt production on a Danish island, salt cured jamon in Spain, to making tsukemono in the kitchens of japan. Exploring the relationship humans have had with salt over the centuries.
