Sugarcane

Sugarcane is a visually delicious collection that offers extraordinary flavor combinations with recipes that are as striking to behold as they are delicious to eat. Drawing on her mixed-race upbringing and bolstered by her years of professional recipe developing, Arlyn Osborne pairs classic Filipino flavors with Western techniques. ​ Recipes for Ube Milk Crinkles, Kumquat Curd Bars, and Pandan Coconut Cream Pie will introduce readers to a new world of ingredients, like star fruit, rambutan, and calamansi. Sunset cookies with their ombre pattern and mix of mango, passion fruit, and guava, will surprise and delight guests. Essays about the history of the Philippines and the effects of colonialism add further dimension and relevance to this book. Photographed by Linda Xiao, the mouth-watering imagery will transport you to an island paradise.
