Coles ARMAN-From a Kitchen of Longing-An Afghan Cookbook: Arman-An Afghan Cookbook at Bayshore Shopping Centre in Ottawa, ON
*Product information may vary - to confirm product availability, pricing, shipping and return information please contact Coles
For decades, Afghanistan has been known not for its culture, food, music, and art but for war, poverty, and hardship. This book began as a way to finally show another side of my homeland while also doing what cookbooks do-standardizing and documenting popular recipes. But it became something much more. Through cooking, writing, and remembering, I returned to a country I had not seen in over forty years.
In that return, I discovered that being Afghan is more than an ethnicity or a place of birth. It is memory, loss, and belonging. It is joy and grief, often living side by side.
Arman means longing. It can also mean regret and sorrow-and wish, hope, and desire. This book was born in a kitchen of longing and sorrow. It became, ultimately, a book of wishes and hope.
