I made another post asking about different cultural cookbooks if anyone had any ideas, but that got me wondering if there was any sort of app like Goodreads, but for cookbooks? Or maybe I’m thinking more like the walking app Strava. I don’t know, an app where you can talk about cookbooks and maybe show what you made other than Reddit?
In a few days from now, I am marrying into a very French-culture family. The parents did not grow up there, but my fiancée did. Long story short - they know the culture and the food pretty well. My mother in law (to be) recommended the Savoring France cookbook by Georgeanne Brennan as the “best of both worlds” cookbook. I, as an American, can understand everything but the recipes are to a tea of what they would say French food should be.
I’m wondering if anyone has any recommendations like this for other cultures - books I as an American reading only English can understand but is still fairly solid.
For our honeymoon, we will be going to many countries so I’d love to find one specifically from Fiji, Australia, Vietnam, Switzerland, or Portugal, but any recommendations for any culture or country would be super helpful.
I live in a very diverse area so my goal is that I would be able to represent cultures at a level where regardless of who I invited over, there would always be representation!
