Samba
A Celebration of Brazilian Food
Giselle Makinde is a Brazilian-born chef and food entrepreneur who moved to Ireland in search of new opportunities and a fresh start. Like many who leave home, she felt disconnected from her roots, yet her childhood memories remain at the heart of everything she cooks.
Samba is a joyful celebration of Brazilian cuisine, family and cultural memory. It brings to life the flavours and traditions passed down from Giselle’s mother and grandmother, and honours the deep connection between food, identity and home.
Blasta (blastə) adj. from the Irish language, means delicious or tasty. Blasta Books are to cookbooks what street food is to restaurants: a fun, accessible way to eat exciting food.
Founded by publisher Kristen Jensen, she has copyedited, proofread and developed recipes and collaborated with Ireland’s best-known, award-winning food writers and chefs to create this inspiring series of books.
This hardback book measures 210mm x 150mm and has approx. 70 pages. As with other titles within this series from Blasta Books, each recipe is super easy to follow, accompanied by delightful illustrations or beautifully styled photography, which only add to the enjoyment of this read.
