The Objects that Made Us
A Jawi recipe book records the tastes of home
For help with cooking three meals a day to feed her family, a Malay woman sat by the radio, pen and paper in hand, over decades, carefully jotting down recipes shared on radio programmes.
The lines of words conscientiously jotted down helped fill her family’s stomachs, and also capture the memories left on their taste buds.
In this episode of The Objects that Made Us, leadership coach Zuzanita shares the Jawi recipe book of her late mother and the tastes of home.
