We’re heading into July, and Texas just “paused” its reopening plans. There is a COVID-19 “hotspot” in Southwestern Ohio, and restaurants across the country can’t determine when it’s safe to reopen dining rooms to the public —at any capacity. Given the current conditions we’ll be cooking at home for the foreseeable future—not that we haven’t enjoyed it!

At Edible HQs coast to coast we’ve been drawing inspiration from each other. With time on our hands to explore other regional and national culinary traditions comes this: Recipes for Home: An Edible Communities Cookbook.

We invite you to share these recipes from Edible magazines all across the U.S. and Canada, to cook in community with fellow local food aficionados. This interactive cookbook is perfect for using on a tablet or desktop computer, and it includes podcast episodes, culinary tips, and all the gorgeous photography you’ve come to expect from our fellow Edible magazines. (It’s available for purchase at EdibleCommunities.com/edible-cookbook/; proceeds support our collective efforts to champion local food.)
