The Anthropologists' Cookbook by Jessica Kuper
First published in 1997. This cookbook invites you to sample cuisines that are still exotic even in the post-modern kitchen. Try out cooking techniques from the Colombian Amazon or from Highland New Guinea. Experiment with recipes from a Malaysian fishing village or taste a Maroon dish from the Jamaican mountains. The idea that a meal should be made up of a sequence of dishes is by no means universal, but there is no reason why one might not construct a syncretic menu. But this book does not just offer a string of recipes. Cooking and eating can be a way of travelling to foreign countries, just as food can trigger memories and bring the past back to you. This book is also a practical introduction to the anthropology of food.
Jessica Kuper came to England from South Africa in 1965, and has a PhD in anthropology from the University of London.
