- Description
- Cape Verdean Katxupa, Italian Fettuccini, Russian Mushroom Casserole, Brazilian Peixada, Moroccan Couscous, Indian Lamb Biriyani, Vietnamese Goi Cuon, and Tuong Ngot--each dish tells the stories of individuals and families who have left their homelands but retained memories of home through their cooking. Breaking Bread encapsulates Chef Lynne Anderson's exploration of immigrant kitchens in the United States, demonstrating how food can evoke memories of a lost world for those who have left much behind.
