A professional and recreational off-road driver, Edwin Hammond Meredith enjoys driving on rough terrain in a Toyota Landcruiser. In addition to serving as a trophy spec driver at the Score International Series, Edwin Hammond Meredith recently participated in one of the World Rally Championship racing events. Established in 1973 by the Federation Internationale de l'Automobile (International Automobile Federation), the World Rally Championship (WRC) is one of the most well-known motorsport competitions in the world. With race courses spread over 15 counties, the WRC competition challenges drivers and their racing vehicles to navigate some of the most difficult and varied terrain, including snow-packed forest trails and rock-covered mountain passes. WRC races typically consist of about 20 timed sections, called stages, held on closed roads. Drivers complete the stages one at a time, attempting to finish each segment in the shortest time. They then observe normal traffic rules on open roads on their way to the next closed-road race. Each WRC event usually takes place over a three-day weekend, with drivers typically arriving early to do “reconnaissance” work on the different stages.

From a young age, Edwin Hammond Meredith had an interest in caring for animals, including horses and dogs. Today, in addition to rescuing and rehabilitating animals, Edwin Hammond Meredith follows a vegan diet.
Adhering to a vegan diet often requires a strong knowledge of common animal-sourced food additives. Some of the most common non-vegan ingredients include: - Shellac. Derived from the lac insect, shellac is used as a candy glaze and can be found in jellybeans, some chocolate products, and sprinkles. It is often listed on food packages as confectioner’s glaze or purified lac resin. - L-cysteine. Produced by breaking down components in human hair or duck feathers, this protein is used by bread manufacturers to produce better dough texture. While synthetic l-cysteine is available, most manufacturers opt for less expensive non-vegan varieties. - Filtering agents. Many alcoholic beverage producers use animal by-products in their filtering process to make the liquid appear brighter and clearer. Some common agents include isinglass, which is derived from fish bladders, and gelatin, which is made from animal proteins. Key Largo-based athlete and trophy driver Edwin Hammond Meredith turned a childhood interest into a profession by enrolling in culinary school. To this end, Edwin Hammond Meredith traveled to Asia to work alongside experienced chefs and learn traditional Japanese cooking techniques. Mushimono, drawing its name from "musu," the Japanese word for steam, can be prepared in a small bowl or in a large steaming pot. Steamers may also be made of bamboo or other types of wood. Steaming produces healthy, light-tasting foods that are often soaked in sake, a Japanese rice wine. The most well-known mushimono dish, chawanmushi, has a soup-like consistency. Eggs and soup stock make the base of the dish. Mushimono techniques can also be used to bake breads, including spongy mushi-pan, which can be made in sweet or savory varieties. |
