Hey there - we just published a new essay.
Say aliens landed on Earth tomorrow and asked (for some reason) for _one_ cookbook from each country to represent that place’s cuisine.
Which cookbook would each country send?
That is basically the question we started building Cookbooks for Aliens with, and the essay both links to the list and includes some writing about the different kinds of cookbooks.
You can read it and see the project here.
Until next week,
\- Carter and Jordan
