Family and food go hand in hand.  Molinaro’s cookbook may be filled with yummy Korean recipes, but it was the look into her family’s rich heritage that I savored in this book.  

 

I was incredibly surprised to see a cookbook as an audiobook option from my @libro monthly picks.  But when my friend @groundedinreads expressed how much she enjoyed the memoir-like essays in this, I knew I would too.  

 

Molinaro’s reflections before each chapter left me teary eyed and hanging on each detail of life as an immigrant.  She masterfully showcases the way food intermingles with family and culture in an indelible way.    

 

Molinaro narrates the audiobook and brings authenticity and nuance to her family’s stories.  She relays both the stories and recipes in an intimate and inviting manner.
