Code Noir

Afro-Caribbean Stories and Recipes 

Author: Lelani Lewis

Through 80+ recipes, Code Noir tells the interesting and complex story of Caribbean cuisines that are not only incredibly rich in flavor but also in history.

Code Noir is a cookbook steeped in history. Not just because of the title, which hits on a seventeenth-century decree in which King Louis XIV recorded how enslaved Africans in the French colonies were to be treated, but also because it deals with the food and the people that, through the gruesome course of history, came together in the Caribbean.

Inside, chef and culinary activist Lelani Lewis goes back to her Caribbean roots with classics like jerk chicken, salted cod fritters, pepperpot stew, and Guinness punch. She also shares new creations with typically Caribbean ingredients like cassava, corn, coconut, lime, plantain, and chilies: plantain with peanut and lime salsa, sweet potato gratin with ginger cream, and crème anglaise of creamed corn and caramelized guava.

A beautiful new edition of the classic Indian cookbook, with all-new recipes, illustrations, and a new foreword by the author

In 1982, with the premier of her now-legendary television program, Indian Cookery, Madhur Jaffrey firmly established herself as "the queen of Indian cooking" (Saveur). The show and this, its companion cookbook, helped to inspire countless home cooks to embrace real Indian food, many for the first time.

In this stunning new edition, beautifully illustrated and featuring new recipes and a new foreword by the author, Jaffrey shares timeless dishes with a new generation. From dals, curries, and chutneys, to breads, rice dishes, and relishes, the 125 recipes in this book are a sweeping survey of the countless dishes of the subcontinent. A go-to resource for generations of readers, four decades after it was first published Indian Cookery remains the last word on the subject.

Hardcover | Knopf | 240 pages

A delectable exploration of Caribbean cuisine through 105 recipes based on eleven staple ingredients, featuring powerful insights into the shared history of the diaspora and gorgeous photography.

Across the English-speaking Caribbean, "me belly full" can mean more than just a satisfied stomach, but a heart and soul that's full too. In Belly Full, food writer of Trinidadian descent Lesley Enston brings us into the overlapping histories of the Caribbean islands through their rich cultures and cuisines.

Eleven staple ingredients—beans, calabaza, cassava, chayote, coconut, cornmeal, okra, plantains, rice, salted cod, and scotch bonnet peppers—hold echoes of familiarity from one island to the next, and their widespread use comes in part from the harrowing impact of the Atlantic Slave Trade and colonialism. As Lesley delves into how history shaped each country and territory's cuisine, she shows us what we can learn from each island (such as Haiti, Jamaica, Puerto Rico, Trinidad & Tobago, and Cuba) and encourages us to celebrate the delicious differences.

Belly Full provides basic knowledge on choosing, storing, and preparing these ingredients as well as a mix of traditional and creative adaptations to dishes. Recipes are mostly gluten-free and plant-based and include:

• Cornmeal: Pen Mayi from Haiti and Conkies from Barbados
• Okra: Callaloo from Trinidad and Tobago and Fungee from Antigua
• Plantains: Mofongo from Puerto Rico and Tortilla de Plátano Maduro from Cuba
• Salted Cod: Ackee and Saltfish from Jamaica and Accras de Morue from Martinique

Belly Full, with its breadth of stories, recipes, and stunning photography, will leave your stomach and heart more than satisfied.
