A Taste of Home: Holding on to Food Culture as a Syrian Refugee

September 6, 2020

What does it feel like to lose your home and start your life again in a foreign land with a foreign culture? How would you anchor yourself to feel safe? How would you find the familiar in so much unfamiliar?

A Taste Of Home is a recipe book created by refugee families across Lancashire who have had to live through the unimaginable venture of fleeing home. The book shows just a small glimpse of how they have begun to rebuild and recenter their life while honoring the homes they’ve lost.

Food, family and friends are at the core of Syrian culture; and what better way to honor the land they've let than by sharing good food with others.

This one of a kind cookbook is now available to for order at mezepublishing.co.uk/product/a-taste-of-home-available-to-pre-order/
