Book description
A captivating collection of stories and recipes from renown chefs, local cooks, and celebrity friends of WCK who have fed communities impacted by environmental crises and political challenges through José Andrés' beloved nonprofit World Central Kitchen; with a foreword from Stephen Colbert. In their first cookbook, WCK shares recipes inspired by the many places they've cooked following disasters as well as inspiring narratives from the chefs and volunteers on the front lines. Photographs captured throughout the world highlight community and hope while stunning food photography showcases the mouthwatering recipes. Each chapter reflects a value of the organization. "Urgency" focuses on food that can be eaten on the go, including the Lahmajoun Flatbread served after a devastating explosion rocked Beirut in 2020. In "Hope," readers will find soups, stews, and comforting meals such as Ukrainian Borsch and Chicken Chili Verde served to families impacted by floods in Nebraska and California firefighters. Famous WCK supporters have shared recipes too, like Breakfast Tacos from Michelle Obama and a Lemon Olive Oil Cake from Meghan Markle. Other contributors include Marcus Samuelsson, Ayesha Curry, Reem Assil, Brooke Williamson, Emeril Lagasse, Tyler Florence, Guy Fieri, Sanjeev Kapoor, and Eric Adjepong. The World Central Kitchen Cookbook: Feeding Hope, Feeding Humanity is a celebration of dignity and perseverance--and about building longer tables, not higher walls. All of The World Central Kitchen Cookbook profits will be directed back to World Central Kitchen.
