Now based in Dublin, she wrote this book to honour the flavours and traditions passed down from her mother and grandmother and as a way to reconnect with her heritage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product__text subtitle\"\u003eThe recipes inside are as vibrant as the colourful pages, including mouth-watering dishes such as sweetcorn custard, shrimp stew with cassava \u0026amp; coconut milk, and the iconic Brazilian cheese bread to name but a few. Each recipe is accompanied by details of both its cultural history and the personal history of the author. And, as Makinde points out, Brazilian food is not meant to be eaten alone, but rather to be shared around a table with others.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product__text subtitle\"\u003eThese recipes are sure to spark joy and curiosity in the kitchen. A perfect gift for the foodie in your life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLove this - why not check out our range of \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca title=\"cookbooks\" href=\"https:\/\/shop.designist.ie\/collections\/cook-books\" target=\"_blank\"\u003ecookbooks\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cspan\u003e ?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWho wrote it?\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eGiselle Makinde Pereira Gonçalves is a chef, storyteller and someone who believes food can bring people and cultures together. She was born and raised in Brazil, and like the dishes she cooks, she’s a mix of many influences: Portuguese, African and Indigenous. She is proud of that blend, and it influences everything she does. When she moved to Ireland, Giselle started thinking a lot more about sustainability and how we use food. That’s what led her to create Cream of the Crop, a gelato company that turns surplus ingredients into something delicious. Over four years, the company has saved more than 50 tonnes of food from going to waste.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat size is it?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHardcover 21.7 x 1.2 x 15.4 cm, 72 \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003epages\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Blasta Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58600530411852,"sku":"BLA-BK-SAMB","price":17.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0073\/5892\/files\/samba-designist-1.png?v=1788345626","url":"https:\/\/shop.designist.ie\/products\/samba-book","provider":"designist","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
