Raquel Rábade Roque
Raquel Rábade Roque explores the unique intermingling of Spanish, Portuguese, Arabian, Chinese, and African traditions that combine in Cuban culture and its cuisine. The Cuban Kitchen (Knopf, $20.00) is encyclopedic in its range, but intimate and accessible in tone with more than five hundred recipes for classic, home-style dishes as well as the vividly told stories behind the recipes. Roque is the author of several cookbooks published in Spanish and English, including the forthcoming Cocina Latina: El sabor del mundo latino.
