Ixta Belfrage: Fusao

This week, we’re off to Brazil with food writer and former
Ottolenghi chef, Ixta Belfrage


Her latest book, Fusao meaning fusion, is about more than the
melting pot of Brazil’s huge diasporic food cultures; it’s about
who she is after a deep dive into her own ancestry, the histories
of Brazil and her own connection with food as medicine. Gilly
finds out if this weighty book, packed with stories and recipes
is an attempt to find her own place in a country which she barely
knew at all. 


And you can buy Fusao at the Cooking the Books shop on
bookshop.org by clicking on the link.


Head over to Substack for Extra Bites from Ixta including a
recipe from the book.
