The World Central Kitchen Cookbook
Feeding Humanity, Feeding Hope
A BEST COOKBOOK OF THE YEAR: Food Network, The Boston Globe, NPR, Los Angeles Times, Epicurious, Wired
In their first cookbook, WCK shares recipes inspired by the many places they’ve cooked following disasters as well as inspiring narratives from the chefs and volunteers on the front lines. Photographs captured throughout the world highlight community and hope while stunning food photography showcases the mouthwatering recipes.
Each chapter reflects a value of the organization. “Urgency” focuses on food that can be eaten on the go, including the Lahmajoun Flatbread served after a devastating explosion rocked Beirut in 2020. In “Hope,” readers will find soups, stews, and comforting meals such as Ukrainian Borsch served to families living through an unthinkable invasion and Chicken Chili Verde prepared for California firefighters. Famous WCK supporters have shared recipes too, like Breakfast Tacos from Michelle Obama and a Lemon Olive Oil Cake from Meghan, The Duchess of Sussex. Other contributors include Marcus Samuelsson, Ayesha Curry, Reem Assil, Brooke Williamson, Emeril Lagasse, Tyler Florence, Guy Fieri, Sanjeev Kapoor, and Eric Adjepong.
The World Central Kitchen Cookbook: Feeding Humanity, Feeding Hope is a celebration of dignity and perseverance—and about building longer tables, not higher walls. All author proceeds from The World Central Kitchen Cookbook will be used to support World Central Kitchen’s emergency response efforts.

World Central Kitchen is a nonprofit founded by chef Andr�s that provides food and healing around the world in times of disaster and plight. This companion cookbook provides a glimpse inside the history, logistics, and the great lengths WCK chefs go to cook for thousands of people multiple times a day, often without basic resources like electricity. Recipes take readers on a journey to a variety of WCK operations around the world, from Haiti to Ukraine. Photography toggles between boots on the ground and gorgeous food images. Preparations are generally designed for four to eight people but can be scaled up, providing variations for use in churches, soup kitchens, VFW halls, and firehouses looking for innovative large-scale cooking. Home cooks with a humanitarian heart will enjoy this journey, learning about the people who make the WCK mission possible and the food that creates healing. VERDICT Andr�s peels back the curtain and reveals how World Central Kitchen feeds the hungry and displaced around the world and shares the recipes that will also provide comfort in one's own kitchen.--Sarah Tansley
