Cookbook Benefits NJ Soup Kitchens

Print

Peace Islands Institute's Women Association published a cookbook that contains recipes from three Abrahamic traditions, Christianity, Judaism and Islam. The idea of publishing a book came about when women of three Abrahamic faiths collected traditional recipes from their respective cuisines and publish them in a book to generate revenues for soup kitchens in the area. Revenue from sales of the first editions were donated to Cumoc Echo in Paterson and Faith Kitchen in Dover, NJ. Directors of Cumoc and Faith Kitchen were pleased with donations, who expressed that publishing a cookbook that was prepared by members of three faiths demonstrates an exemplary activity aimed at fighting Poverty. Peace Islands Institute thanks to Lynn Webb, Nuray Sonmez, Stephanie Carbone, Rukiye Koc, Barbara Osborne and Nesrin Yilmaz for their hard work and dedication in carrying out such an excellent project.

We thank all of the volunteers for sharing their delicious recipes with everyone.
