Braided Heritage
Discover the sweeping story of how Indigenous, European, and African traditions intertwined to form an entirely new cuisine, with over 90 recipes for the modern home cook--from the James Beard Cookbook Hall of Famer and star of the Netflix docuseries High on the Hog. One of our preeminent culinary historians, Dr. Jessica B. Harris has conducted decades of research throughout the Americas, the Caribbean, and Africa. In this telling of the origins of American food, though, she gets more personal. As heritage is history, she intertwines the larger sweeping past with stories and recipes from friends she's made over the years--people whose family dishes go back to the crucial era when Native peoples encountered Europeans and the enslaved Africans they brought with them. Through this mix, we learn that Clear Broth Clam Chowder has both Indigenous and European roots; the same, too, with Enchiladas Suizas, tomatillo-smothered tortillas made "Swiss" with cheese and dairy; and that the hallmarks of African American food through the centuries have been evolution based on region, migration, and innovation, resulting in classics like Red Beans and Rice and Peach Bread Pudding Cupcakes with Bourbon Glaze. With recipes ranging from everyday meals to festive spreads, Braided Heritage offers a new, in-depth, delicious look at American culinary history.

The Carmel-Kawachinagano Cookbook
In The Carmel-Kawachinagano Cookbook: Recipes, Restaurants, and Relationships Defining Three Decades of Sister-City History, Carmel resident Ethan McAndrews eats his way through the small-town friendship connecting two cities 6,000 miles apart: Carmel, Indiana and Kawachinagano, Japan. Navigating everything from poisonous fish to 600-pound farm pigs, McAndrews presents a firsthand look at the people, stories, and traditions behind some of the most intriguing aspects of Japanese and American life.

With hand-drawn illustrations and easy-to-follow recipes, this powerful, interactive work allows readers to visualize life in another culture...and taste it, too. Kawachinagano-based artist Takeo Tsunamoto captures the essence of both cities in his illustrations, crafting over 40 original Japanese-style drawings throughout the book. Additionally, with over 28 recipes from both towns, The Carmel-Kawachinagano Kitchen provides the opportunity for culinary discovery long after readers turn the final page. From Carmel's Pork Tenderloin Sandwich to Kawachinagano's octopus-filled Takoyaki, The Carmel-Kawachinagano Kitchen is full of tasty travel stories, appetizing illustrations, and mouth-watering recipes. It's a read your taste buds will enjoy just as much as your eyes!
