Ozoz Sokoh is a food explorer, educator, budding curator, and Traveler By Plate, for whom “Food Is More Than Eating”. In 2009, she began journaling about food on her blog, Kitchen Butterfly. In 2013, she created the #NewNigerianKitchen, developing her philosophy and practice with Nigerian food. Also central to her work is connectedness through food, from food sovereignty, cultural identity, reclamation of the food system and importantly, the joy of eating.

Her research and documentation explore the roots of Nigerian and West African cuisine, the impact of West African intellectual contributions to global development from the American South, through the Caribbean to Europe, the Americas, and the connection to the Afro-diaspora.
