The authors worked with refugees and immigrants who have made Ireland their home to collect and share their recipes, showing that food knows no borders.Trade Review"It is impossible to underestimate the impact that Jess Murphy of Galway's Kai and Eoin Cluskey of Bread 41 have had on contemporary Irish food. Yes, they are both commercial organisations, but commerce is actually beside the point: they don't exist just to make money. Consider this: in a world where every food person wants to write a book, Jess and Eoin have handed over the authorship of their first book, Cookies, to a multitude of diverse people from around the world, people who either by necessity or by choice live and work in Ireland. The names of Jess and Eoin are on the cover, but the content is curated from the work of many others, a collation of adorable recipes for cookies, culled from all over the globe which they have gathered and tested to create a glorious wealth of sweetness that you'll want to cook each and every version. In a time where selfishness threatens to drown our shared humanity, Jess and Eoin's act of selflessness - their generosity - falls from the heavens like mercy itself." - John and Sally McKenna, McKennas' GuidesTable of ContentsIntroduction; Afghani shortbread; Khatira Hassanpour; American monster cookies; Brazilian snack biscuits; British jammy dodgers; Canadian fat archies; Dutch lemon & fennel crinkle cookies; Finnish spoon cookies; Greek Easter cookies; Hong Kong-style egg roll cookies; Indian chilli & coriander biscuits; Japanese wasabi cream cookies; Lithuanian lazy cookies; Malaysian peanut butter cookies; Mexican piglet cookies; New Zealand Anzac biscuits; Norwegian jam thumbprint cookies; Palestinian date-filled cookies; Persian rice cookies; Polish rose jam cookies; Somalian biscuits; Ifrah Ahmed; Syrian sesame & pistachio cookies; The Al Jamous Family; Turkish coffee cookies; Venetian butter cookies; Venezuelan egg cookies; Yemeni festive cookies; Sara Althobhaney

Filled with gorgeous photography, high quality reproductions and fascinating anecdotes, this one-of-a-kind cookbook connects great art with the world of food. To create the recipes in this book Felicity Souter delved into the lives of artists past and present, uncovering fascinating stories, eating habits, and cultural traditions. Each entry consists of an appetizer, main, side, dessert, or drink that visually echoes the artwork and reflects the culinary connection to its artist. More than fifty masterpieces from an enormous array of genres and periods include works by Marina Abramovic , Jean Michel Basquiat, Georgette Chen, Salvador Dali , Jacob Lawrence, Man Ray, Henri Matisse, Georgia O'Keeffe, and Jackson Pollock. Sumptuous illustrations reveal a striking resemblance between recipe and artwork. An abstract Lee Krasner painting is transformed into a colorful mixed vegetable salad; an oval-shaped Barbara Hepworth sculpture into a crusty loaf of bread; a snowy Monet haystack into a sugar-dusted breakfast muffin; an Yves Klein sponge into an electric blue martini. Easy enough for every day, and aimed at cooks of all abilities, these recipes are themselves works of art, and will whet the creative appetites of readers and chefs alike.
