Making and sharing food is a way of showing love and creating connections, across cultures and communities. When we began this project, we imagined a recipe book that would hold sweet baked goods from around the world but we quickly learned that not everyone in our community thinks the same way about ‘treats’!

So we took a much wider view of the word ‘treat’ and how food makes people feel connected and nurtured across time and space. Familiar Foods: Treats of Aotearoa is a collection of 43 recipes from 30 cultures, each translated into its language of origin and accompanied by a story from the contributor and gorgeous photos.
