Instead, I asked for her apron, saved a piece of vintage Pyrex from the discard pile, and begged for her handwritten recipes, not only because I wanted to cook from them but because I knew she’d held the pen to form the words. When I’m cooking, her kitchen is the one I go back to in the corners of my mind, and many of the recipes in this book are ones she and my motherserved for years. . . . this book aims to become not just another cookbook on your shelf but a part of your family.Like a photo album on the coffee table, I hope it will inspire you to create traditions and family rhythms. This book is a love letter to my family. Let me encourage you to begin writing yours.”I had a great time talking with Dina.
