Synopsis

"This gorgeous collection celebrates how food connects us to our cultural and family histories while helping us forge relationships in a new land. Memory, longing, and the joy of sharing culinary traditions are beautifully rendered in pieces written from the heart. This book is an absolutely delicious delight!" --Marjan Kamali, author of Lion Women of Tehran

The ruby tartness of rhubarb in a summer pie. The warmth of a remembered Persian stew. A father's legacy, shaped into a Matzoh ball. Each of these essays and poems is an invitation into the dance of memory and the play of taste buds, as people from all over the world become their American selves-and America, enlarged by their family recipes and the striving of generations, grows into a table to hold the world. This Pangyrus anthology is a feast of food, love, and connection.
