Think Humans of New York meets an Asian American cookbook. Each episode, a new guest or guests will share a recipe that was meaningful to them growing up and we’ll talk about the family history behind the dish, who the memorable people were, and how food and cooking played a role both in their childhood and as an adult.
This episode we’re talking with Karen Chan, founder of Gloo Books about not one, but two of her childhood favorites, Taiwanese tea eggs and her mom’s oxtail stew! If you’re hungry now you might want to go get a snack. We talk with Karen about the nostalgia of visiting her grandparents in Taiwan and eating tea eggs from the convenience store, her mom’s less enthusiastic approach to food, and the connective power of food and travel.
We talk a lot about the many wonderful titles under Gloo Books, Karen gives us a peek inside the publishing world, and we get the inside scoop on some brand new baby books that we can all help kickstart! Plus we come up with an oyster-based business idea for her dad.
Find Gloo Book’s kickstarter for their Baby Go series, and check out all the wonderful Gloo Books titles on their website. We are serious fans of many of these and if you find yourself here, you’ll at the very least love the Very Asian Guide to.. Series.
