Jing Tio, Spice Mover and Shaker
Only a short entry for the moment as I'm waiting on some product photos for the next few reviews. I just saw this piece in the New York Times about a behind-the-scenes spice mover and, pardon the pun, shaker. He brings in exotic new spices and introduces them to hundreds of American chefs. His real money, I suspect, comes from the high-end cookware store he owns - Le Sanctuaire in Santa Monica, which a pair of cooking chopsticks can run $125. I'm not sure I'd want to see the price tags on the spices.
