        This debut cookbook was born from Mota's blog, My Dominican Kitchen, where she highlights dishes from her home country to connect with her roots and pass culinary traditions on to her children. Mota learned the language of love through cooking from her mother and grandmother while growing up in the Dominican Republic. Her book's introduction walks readers through the Dominican pantry, tools, sofrito, and even how to peel a plantain. Then readers are ready to cook, and Mota presents a collection of classic recipes from chulitos to locrio de pollo. Recipes include notes with helpful tips and tricks, and the introductions offer plenty of substitutions and pairing suggestions. A mixture of beautiful landscape photography and the warmth of the food styling deliver fantastic island vibes. Whether cooks are hoping to rediscover family favorites or explore Dominican cooking for the first time, here they will find everything they need to create genuine and delicious fare. VERDICT Mota successfully delivers cuisine and flavors that will evoke nostalgia in many while bringing a distinctive cookbook to library shelves.--Sarah Tansley
