Kitchen Connection

Thank you The New York Times for featuring our Cookbook in Support of the United Nations: For People and Planet. The article will be out in print, tomorrow! 🙏 “Sustainability and healthy eating are front and center. There are five recipe sections covering food systems, biodiversity, sustainable consumption, food and climate change, and food waste. Among the stellar recipes in the generally vegetable-forward collection are Moroccan chorba with eggplant and sweet potato; a simple squash soup from the American Black Créole Community; Austrian potato goulash; and venison carpaccio with watercress salad, suitable for a party buffet.“ We are grateful for your support in our pursuit to empower global citizens with the knowledge to contribute to a better food system.    Featuring unique recipes from around the world with nutritional content and carbon emission calculations for human and planetary health, recipes in this cookbook reduce your carbon footprint by 58.6% than an average meal from high-emitting countries. 🌎   This cookbook is a great resource to reference in your pursuit to practice sustainable consumption of food, beneficial to both people and planet. 👩🍳📖 With Manal Al-Alem, Jose Andres, massimo bottura, Daniel Boulud, @Rosalia Chay Chuc, Theo De Jager (World Farmers' Organisation), Virgilio Juarez Martinez, Grace Ramirez, Chef Pierre Thiam, Andrew Zimmern & Lucia Albero (Whole Foods Market), Earlene Cruz (Kitchen Connection), Sara Farley (The Rockefeller Foundation), Alejandra G.
