Sommario/riassunto

Throughout history and across world cultures, women have traditionally been the keepers and transmitters of oral tradition, such as the teaching of cherished food preparation techniquesÑor rituals, in some casesÑby family elders to the next generation. The personal stories that lie behind these time-honored recipes provide a clear view into each culture's identity.|
