{"product_id":"9780063244061","title":"Mayumu: Filipino American Desserts Remixed","description":"\u003cp\u003e\"A sweet baking book of fantastically imaginative remixed Filipinx American dessert recipes, plus stories of the Filipinx American experience by baker-activist, Abi Balingit When the pandemic started her lonely work-from-home life in 2020, Abi channeled all her energy into the one thing that brought her joy: baking. She started to produce Pasalubong boxes filled with novel treats that blended the Filipino and Asian flavors Abi grew up with and her favorite Western style baked goods, each time selling out within hours and donating the proceeds to support her community in need. Now, Abi shares these cult-favorite desserts with Mayumu (which means \"sweet\" in one of the 8 major languages in Philippines), an incredibly fresh baking book of 75 recipes for sweet treats, organized in chapters tied to where she discovered these flavors growing up as child of immigrants in a cultural melting pot, from the Philippines, to all around California, to her now home Brooklyn, NY. And she bakes all of these in her tiny, dimly lit, urban kitchen, meaning anyone can do it, too\"--\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher Marketing\u003c\/strong\u003e: Simultaneously nostalgic and eye-opening in its novelty, Mayumu is the perfect example of what makes the modern Filipino American food movement so exciting. By building on the basics of both American and Filipino desserts, Abi shows us how refreshing and fun it can be to loosen the boundaries of tradition and let the two schools mingle a little more. - Bettina Makalintal, food writer at Eater Every recipe and every story in Mayumu bursts off the page with joy, love, ingenuity, and personality. Abi's work is vibrant, eclectic, comforting, funny, deeply moving, and, to me, feels like a uniquely perfect articulation of the intricacies, depths, and jubilations of being Asian American. Mayumu is a celebration of what it means to be human and alive today. I absolutely adore this book. - Jonny Sun, New York Times bestselling author of Goodbye, Again As a Filipino-American baker, I've very much longed for the representation in the culinary world that is Mayumu . Abi's recipes are a creative blend of Filipino and American flavors and treats, marrying the best of both worlds. - Michelle Lopez, blogger at Hummingbird High and author of Weeknight Baking Publisher Marketing :\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hardcover | \u003cstrong\u003ePages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 288 | \u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2023-02-28\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Harvest Publications","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":46477842219139,"sku":"9780063244061","price":40.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0564\/6830\/8099\/files\/9780063244061.jpg?v=1770301383","url":"https:\/\/sebink.com\/products\/9780063244061","provider":"Sebink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
