Cooking the Books LIVE: Anna Ansari

This week, we’re with Anna Ansari, the American-Iranian author of
Silk Roads: A Flavor Odyssey with Recipes from Baku to
Beijing.


We meet at Helm Gallery in Brighton’s North Laine, in front of a
live audience which includes members of the Network of
international Women whose debate about the culinary variations of
Kuku from Iran and Iraq to Syria, Jordan and Yemen becomes
particularly heated in the Q&A. Food, travel and geopolitics,
food memory and food identity - it's all here among many of the
people who understand these issues most.


You can buy Silk Roads from the Cooking the Books shop at
Bookshop.org by clicking on the link, which supports this
advertising free podcast.


And do pop over to Gilly's Substack for the recipe for kuku
and pictures of the live podcast event.
