🥖Christmas is one of my favorite times of the year since it awakens childhood memories of joyous Guyanese Christmases with family and friends. Parents prepped meats and cakes weeks in advance to establish lip smacking flavor profiles that remain indelible in my mind even today. And I see our home, and six-year-old me sneaking out of bed on Christams eve to inspect the Christmas tree and pry presents while my parents slept.
🥖Today Christmas remains a time of joy even with economic edits to trends. Happy Holidays and enjoy 21 of my bread recipes in Vegan Delectable: Volume V.
