A thoughtful, grounded cookbook that’s as much about culture and food sovereignty as it is about recipes. The photography is excellent, and the recipes are approachable without being dumbed down. What really works is the context—this isn’t trend-driven “clean eating,” it’s food tied to land, history, and responsibility. I knocked off a star only because this is a book I admire slightly more than I crave, but it’s absolutely worth reading and cooking from.
