Culinary Culture - COOL HUNTING®
The article highlights the importance of cultural heritage in branding, particularly through culinary expressions. Brands that incorporate storytelling and authenticity, like Beejhay Barhany's cookbook, can create deeper connections with consumers, enhancing brand loyalty and engagement. This approach emphasizes the need for brands to reflect their unique narratives and values in their strategies.
Cool Hunting: Gursha Gursha Gursha: Timeless Recipes for Modern Kitchens, from Ethiopia, Israel, Harlem, and Beyond: A Cookbook by Harlem’s acclaimed chef Beejhay Barhany, celebrates her unique heritage. Through more than 100 recipes, the book brings her Beta Israel (Ethiopian Jewish) heritage to life through food, accented by her and her family’s time in Ethiopia, Sudan, Israel and Harlem. The book’s title speaks to “the act of feeding one another,” which is both literal with its recipes but also metaphorically apt given how she shares stories of family, culture, place, tradition, home and diaspora.
This cookbook shares the culinary traditions of a relatively small and lesser known Jewish community in an accessible way that’s easy to cook at home.

hocolate Peanut Crunch Caramels Chocolate Peanut Crunch Caramels Bee Grateful Farm hand makes their tasty honey-sweetened caramels in Colorado. The Chocolate Peanut Crunch Caramels are our favorite (though the others are also worth trying out too). Perfectly sized with just the right blend of salty, sweet, crunchy and creamy, and well-balanced between the peanuts, honey-sweetened caramel, cocoa and salt hits every mark. We usually have notes. But we don’t have any here.
Price is for one package with ten caramels.
