The Pepperpot Diaries by Andi Oliver
The Pepperpot Diaries is Andi Oliver’s long-awaited first cookbook. Showcasing both traditional and new recipes, cherished ingredients and vibrant flavours from across the Caribbean. Let Andi Oliver take you on an exploration of identity and heritage as she shows you how to create simple yet sensational dishes that will bring the unbeatable flavours of Caribbean cooking to your table.
The story of food captured in this book will take readers on a journey around the melting pot of cultural influences, history and legacy that has uniquely shaped handed-down and contemporary Caribbean food. Through her travels in Antigua, Andi shares her deeply personal journey on reconnecting with the food she grew up eating – the flavours and ingredients that run through her heart and soul – and what the future might hold for Caribbean cookery. This book explores who we were, who we are, and where we’re going – all through the food we eat and the people we meet along the way.
‘Andi brings joy to everything she touches, and this book is no exception‘.
