Story Behind The Book

This 16-story collection selection took several years to complete. Each story is original, every recipe was personalized and all food lore items were researched. Using select folklore motifs (the broken heart, the healing hand, the wise elder, the trickster, etc.) allowed these original stories to come to life. Some of them are modeled after family members, family stories and family recipes!

<p class="MsoNormal"><em><span style="font-family:Cambria;font-size:14px;">As a professional chef, I perceive food as an act of giving to others and sharing a part of myself. This can mean memories of food experiences I had as a child or while sailing and cooking around the world. The core, I think is learning, either personally or through another individual, the cultural history and family values behind each and every recipe I encounter. It is the foundation of food. <strong>Black Pepper Visions </strong>really solidifies these relationships with food for me through these wonderful tales,” </span></em><span style="font-family:Cambria;font-size:14px;">s</span><span style="font-family:Cambria;font-size:14px;">aid Chef Heidi West of Heidi West Catering.</span></p>
