An enthralling, intimate collection of essays and over 75 recipes exploring the history of eight countries to understand the impact of geopolitical conflict and its outcomes on cuisine and food system, from Somali refugee and James Beard Award-winning author of In Bibi's Kitchen.

Countries dealing with major conflict are rarely portrayed in a well-rounded light by the media. Images of disarray and decline saturate their narratives, ignoring the strength, resourcefulness, and ingenuity that arise from having to navigate conflict. With empathy, curiosity, and an insistence on sharing different aspects of human survival, Hawa Hassan gathers singular, multifaceted narratives for eight countries from around the world.

Each chapter is devoted to a different country and opens with an informative essay on the culture and its history. Recipes follow highlighting indigenous ingredients and share intimate portraits of the people preserving food culture, including food from:

• Afghanistan, such as Bolani (Stuffed Flatbread) and Borani Banjan (Stewed Eggplant with Garlic Yogurt)
• Democratic Republic of Congo, such as Chikwanga (Cassava Flour Cake) and Pondu (Cassava Leaf Stew)
• Egypt, such as Ta'ameya (Fava Bean Fritters) and Ghorayeba (Shortbread Cookies)
• El Salvador, such as Sopa de Res (Beef Shank Soup) and Pupusas con Curtido (Filled Masa Flatbreads with Cabbage Slaw)
• Iraq, such as Shorbat Adas (Lentil Soup) and Bamia (Lamb and Okra Stew)
• Lebanon, such as Malfouf (Stuffed Cabbage Rolls) and Mouhamara (Spicy Walnut and Red Pepper dip)
• Liberia, such as Ground Peanut Soup and Kala (Sweet Fried Dough)
• Yemen, such as Saltah (Lamb Stew with Fenugreek Fruth) and Sahawiq

An original and groundbreaking work, Setting a Place for Us returns agency to the people whose stories, up until now, have been ignored in the media. It sheds light on the important work of preserving recipes and food traditions in places of conflict and migration.

I have always loved to bake. I found cooking difficult, especially after I got married. It took years to get to a level where I am proud of my cooking. Proud that all that experimenting finally paid off and now I dona t freak out at the thought of guests coming for dinner, I welcome it. Every Ramadan for the last 6 years I have raised money for charity with my children. We have sold cakes, sweets, balloons, absolutely anything! This year I started teaching children how to cook online. Which gave me the idea to write a cookbook of the recipes I was teaching them. Recipes that are easy to make and that are perfect for those new to cooking. The whole idea behind these classes was to teach the next generation how to cook hearty homely meals easily. The profits from this cookbook will help out individuals in desperate need of something, whether it be medical assistance, a house, clothes, rations, a wedding, anything that they cana t get the help for easily. I am targeting, Bangladesh, India and Pakistan as I have reliable people on the ground that can check to see that it is a genuine cause and send evidence of where the money will be spent. I will update the website www.kitchenmagiccookbook.com regularly with the profits made from the cookbook and which projects have been funded. Thank you for your support, I pray you all love the dishes you cook from this book and they bring joy to your family as they do to mine!
