More than just a recipe collection, however, Kin is a book that celebrates the power of food, and explores the many ways in which food connects us to our families, our cultures, and our roots. Gathering recipes from across the Caribbean, Marie tells the stories behind each dish and illuminates their historical and cultural roots.

Recipes we love: Jamaican Patties, Honey Jerk Wings, Piña Panna Cotta with Caramelized Pineapple, and Summer Rum Punch.
