Book description
-Library Journal"Irresistibly toothsome, culturally nourishing."-Shelf Awareness"In this imaginative and utterly charming cookbook, Roya Shariat and her mother, Gita Sadeh, show us how recording a recipe can be an act of preservation: a way to resist the feeling of loss an immigrant may face she has to leave home, or a way to keep the spirit of a departed loved one alive. This is a loving encomium to anyone who has had to uproot themselves because of circumstance and worked to maintain their identity-and a sense of belonging-through food."-Mayukh Sen, author of Taste Makers: Seven Immigrant Women Who Revolutionized Food in America"What a delight to see Roya and Gita's infectious charm, on display for millions on TikTok, translated into a vibrant cookbook! While Roya and Gita's recipes are uniquely their own, and firmly Iranian American, they possess all the hallmarks of Persian cuisine. I especially love their creative use of delicate and floral spices-and so many fresh herbs!-while maintaining a balance between sweetness and acidity. Reading Maman and Me was like taking a trip back into my own childhood, as I'm also a daughter of an Iranian mother-one who, like Gita, cooks with her senses and so much love."-G. Daniela Galarza, staff writer at The Washington Post and author of the newsletter Eat Voraciously"A sweet and delicious love letter to Iranian food, culture, and family."-Naz Deravian, author of Bottom of the Pot"Maman and Me is as soulful as it is delicious, a heart-stirring portrayal of a daughter's love for her immigrant mother. Roya Shariat and Gita Sadeh welcome us to their family's colorful table, where cherished Iranian dishes such as slow-cooked abgoosht, garlicky eggplant mirza ghasemi, and homey stovetop kebab come to vivid life. I'll take seconds."-Nilou Motamed, Emmy-nominated television personality and global food expert jQuery(function() { jQuery( "#tabs" ).tabs(); });
