BREAKING BREAD Forward by Corby Kummer Photos by Robin Radin With stories of hand-rolled pasta
and homemade chutney, visits to local markets and backyard gardens, and foraging
trips for mushrooms and grape leaves, this book recounts in loving detail the
memories, recipes, and culinary traditions of people who have come to the
United States from around the world. Chef and teacher Lynne Anderson has gone
into immigrant kitchens and discovered the power of food to recall a lost
world for those who have left nearly everything behind. Here she presents a
cornucopia of stories describing meals shared with family and friends,
traditions passed through generations, and unusual ingredients and cooking
techniques. The enticing, easy-to-prepare recipes feature specialties like
Greek dolmades, Filipino adobo, Brazilian peixada, and
Sudanese mulukhiyah. They include a spicy lamb stew from Ethiopia, a
complete dinner from Pakistan, mushroom casserole from Russia, and much more.
Together with Robin Radin's beautiful photographs, these stories and
recipes will inspire cooks of all levels to explore new traditions while
perhaps rediscovering their own culinary roots. Robin Radin is an award
winning documentary and landscape photographer whose photographs have been
published and exhibited nationally.
In 2003, she was awarded the Massachusetts Cultural Council Artist Grant in Photography. Robin exhibits
her work annually at Jamaica Plain Open Studios in Boston, Massachusetts. |
