Bøger af Von Diaz

"In this deliciously groundbreaking cookbook, Von Diaz travels across oceans and nations to honor island cooking in over 125 recipes organized by their ancestral cooking techniques. These techniques, among the oldest known to humanity, enable people to make delicious food with limited ingredients, often without modern tools or electricity"--

When her family moved from Puerto Rico to Atlanta, Von Diaz traded plantains, roast pork, and Malta for grits, fried chicken, and sweet tea. Brimming with humour and nostalgia, Coconuts and Collards is a recipe-packed memoir of growing up Latina in the Deep South. The stories center on the women in Diaz's family who have used food to nourish and care for one another.
