The Savers of Flavor

With every growing season, the South is in danger of losing an ingredient that’s shaped our state’s flavor, history, and culture.

Chef Kevin Mitchell and food historian David Shields are on a quest to seek out and rescue those ingredients before they are lost forever. Part documentary, part travelogue, part cooking show—The Savers of Flavor is the story of history from our fields to our finest dining rooms, of foods from humble kitchen tables to some of the most exalted restaurants in the world, gathered from the coast to the foothills and everywhere in between.
