Cooking From Memory: A Storyteller in the Kitchen

This memoir/cookbook invites the reader to share in the delight of food well made while visiting the author’s life well lived. Delicious and accessible recipes accompany essays that span Jackie Jonas’ life from a child growing up in Tennessee to an adult in Pennsylvania. The chapters, Cooking From Memory, Cooking for Love, Cooking Up the World and Cooking for Troubled Times include poignant essays followed by beloved recipes. Jonas shares glimpses of her youth in the South asking us to continue to grow and cook with her as she shares her personal experience of desegregating her elementary school in the late 1960’s. Food nourishes as we read her thoughts about Black Lives Matter, the murder of George Floyd and the wonder of the Black Panther film. The book expands into world travel and in doing so, invites the reader to continue to experience the author as a person who writes – and cooks -- from the heart.
