As a continent, South America is rich in diversity between its countries, but whether you look to Argentina or Brazil, Peru or Colombia, each country and its cuisine is built on exceptional local produce, ancient tradition, and a multilayered set of influences from incomers across the centuries. We have three books newly added to ckbk that bring you some of the tastes and traditions of South America.

‘Combining academic knowledge with Brazilian soul, Morena developed a culinary style that is both sophisticated and deeply rooted in popular traditions. (…) She has built a name not only for her skills as a chef but also for the way she weaves gastronomy with education, art, sustainability, and social inclusion.
