Mirta Rinaldi was 61 years old when she launched her food business, Mendulcina. But her journey with food began long before. Growing up in Mendoza, Argentina, she spent a lot of time in the kitchen, surrounded by family. Cooking was their love language. Then, in 1975 Mirta moved to New York City, and after working a variety of jobs she decided to follow her passion and cook full time.
In this episode Epicenter-NYC’s Danielle Hyams sits down with Mirta and her daughter Paola, who helps run Mendulcina, to learn more about the inspiration behind the company.
