Perspectives S37/Ep9 Annette Anthony says there's "always enough"

Joining me for this episode of Perspectives is culinary expert Annette Anthony. In Always Enough: A Global Food Memoir written by Annette Anthony takes readers on a global culinary adventure. She uses her Black girl culinary experience to show that what is similar across cultures stands out just as much as their uniqueness, and that there is always enough at the table, however little or much. From Philadelphia to travels across several continents, Anthony offers a generous and eclectic collection of more than 160 recipes she developed across her lifetime. Unlike cookbooks that concentrate on food preparation and ingredients alone, Always Enough maps a life enriched by many cultures and cuisines, reflecting the author’s worlds and discovery of the crossroads of cultures and cuisines through poetry, prose and recipes. Anthony’s memoir launches from her grandparents West Philadelphia home, where their southern roots influenced meals. Then she takes us to Paris, the Ivory Coast and back to Europe where she now lives in London.
