A memoir of global travel and the 175 recipes it inspired.
Always A Global Food Memoir is a storied cookbook, a love letter to the author's tables in America, Europe, and Africa. From Philadelphia to Paris, Morocco to the Ivory Coast, Bologna to Greece to London, Always Enough tracks the cultural insights the author absorbed by shopping, cooking, and eating across the world, and provides 175 recipes learned across those kitchens.
Always Enough's meals model adapting to one's environment and what ingredients are available; its recipes capture a broad swath of international cuisines while also promoting flavors and ingredients not emphasized in traditional Western cooking; its approach encourages sustainable and healthy eating, with health-conscious dishes for vegetarians and meat-eaters alike.
Always Enough shares good food and good stories of how one cook's identity took shape by immersing herself in local cooking and culture around the world.
Fantastic way to write a cookbook. No pictures so each recipe is really connected to a memory or a story and I like how it allows the mind to form it’s own visual of what the read things it should look like. It also eliminates an expectation to what your rendition of how a recipe might come out. Beautifully written.
