“Recipes are the guardians of memories, of times spent with family and friends. They are often the only link to past loves, a scribed piece of paper with a few words and some numbers, but those carry so much emotions and stories.
Recipes are never lost and will survive wars, dictatorships or censorships. Recipes are beacon of hope, identity and culture.”
