Three Things We Were Grateful For At Our Cookbook Club Event with Hetty Lui McKinnon
Briefly

"Food isn't just about sustenance-it's a catalyst for thoughtful conversation, deeper connections, and an uplifting community. Friendships blossomed over plates of Tenderheart's recipes for Mapo Eggplant, Tomato and Gruyère Clafoutis, and Hazelnut Hasselback Potato Gratin (her Thanksgiving must-have)."
"When I think about food, it's about having the courage to reflect on my identity and where I come from," Hetty shared. Tenderheart is the manifestation of that courage because it reflects upon the first time she allowed herself to feel the emotions of losing her father as a teenager.
"I do celebrate Thanksgiving, but I use it more as an opportunity to feast and cook the food I want to cook." Hetty shared her perspective on Thanksgiving, emphasizing personal choice over tradition.
