Food is a way to learn about cultures. This cookbook contains recipes so the reader can taste the world, literally. 75 recipes for breakfast, lunch and dinner, sides, salads and breads, and sweets. Each recipe has a brief introduction about the related country and graphics are a combination of cartoon-like drawings and photos. Ingredients and tools are clearly listed and directions are presented in numbered, easy-to-follow steps. Little cooking tips are included in pop-up type boxes.

Although aimed at tweens, the cookbook can be used by anyone.
