EP #033: Suzanne & Michelle Rousseau of Summer House at the Liguanea Club Suzanne and Michelle Rousseau are Jamaican born sisters, cookbook authors and restaurateurs who developed the concept of Modern Heritage Dining. Their sophomore cookbook Provisions: The Roots of Caribbean Cooking (click to buy from Amazon) is as much a catalogue of West Indian vegetarian recipes as it is a tribute to West Indian women who have laid the culinary foundation of the Caribbean.

Like when I woke up!"  They shared an actual rock bottom moment but that was a good laugh. Cooking with Intention "Our culinary lense is really one that is informed by an understanding of the country, the region, the history of that place and how do we really translate that into a visceral experience to all your senses." -Suzanne What are you most passionate about today? "Honestly, telling stories and sharing the magic that we have here. For me it really is about telling the untold, the unknown stories and that in some ways could be about the ingredients, the women, that's our great grandmother. Whenever I see something special and something magical here, I'm driven to share that." -Michelle  On The Fly Biggest roadblock in your path? Access to cheap money. The greatest rapper of all time? Biggie Smalls! Fill in the blank with a habit: Without art/failure I wouldn't be successful. The restaurant industry needs more diversity and more equitable representation.  The restaurant industry needs more female cooks and more women as restaurant owners.   Books & Resources Mentioned: The Book of Night Women by Marlon James  Women Who Run With Wolves by Clarissa Pinkola Estes Connect with Suzanne & Michelle Rousseau www.2sistersandameal.com www.summerhouseja.com   Facebook   http://twitter.com/2sistersandameal (Twitter)   Instagram Subscribe to The Chef Rock Xperiment!   Shoot me an email to let me know what you thought of the show! tcrx@rocksolidfood.com  

This episode features the first official Equity at the Table event. It is a recording of a panel conversation moderated by Klancy Miller, an EATT Advisory Board member and author of Cooking Solo. Host Julia Turshen was the author on the panel and was joined by Kara Rota, a cookbook editor, Cindy Uh, a literary agent with Thompson Literary Agency, and Heami Lee, a photographer who shoots cookbooks plus other work. They cover everything from book proposals to writing, shooting, and promoting a book. The goal of this event was to try and create some transparency and to foster community. The publishing industry is really opaque and so much of book publishing, and definitely cookbook publishing, is relationship-based. Familial terms abound— for example, publishing companies are referred to as publishing houses. The agent-author relationship is often discussed like dating— about finding the right match. Authors refer to books as their babies. Relationships between authors, editors, photographers, and even readers often transcend the professional and become personal. Which can be wonderful, but also confusing. How do you navigate when something isn’t going well? How do you get in the door if you don’t know anyone? This episode attempts to answer some of those questions. Here are some additional resources: Join Equity at The Table! Support Equity at the Table!

Tune in to hear about matriarchs and much more. Thank you to Handsome Brook Farm Pasture Raised Organic Eggs for supporting Radio Cherry Bombe. Radio Cherry Bombe is powered by Simplecast.

Cathy is joined on the phone by Michelle and Suzanne Rousseau, restauranteurs of the Kingston, Jamaica-based Summerhouse at The Liguanea Club and authors of two cookbooks on Caribbean cookery. Their latest, Provisions, centers on vegetarian recipes based on hearty, starchy ground roots—the traditional cookery of their ancestors. The sisters talk about learning about their great-grandmother Martha, who was a pioneering female restaurant owner in Jamaica who developed the most delectable patties on the island, and also the erasure of her story and those of other women who have forged what we know of as Caribbean cuisine today. They talk about why it's important to share their stories, and how they are carrying on the torch as culinary professionals sharing the legacy of Caribbean cooking today.

Jamaican sisters, cookbook authors, and restauranteurs Suzanne and Michelle Rousseau join Julia for a conversation about the spirit they bring to their work and the experiences that have informed how they approach life. It’s a conversation about learning to trust your own voice, to embrace fear, to be your own champion, and to just keep going. Michelle and Suzanne have a long history of collaboration. They’ve run a boutique, a catering business, restaurants; they’ve appeared on television and have co-authored two cookbooks. Their first, Caribbean Potluck, came out in 2014 and their latest, Provisions: The Roots of Caribbean Cooking, came out in December of 2018. It’s not just a book of contemporary vegetarian recipes— and it is a great one!— it’s also the history of Caribbean cooking, which is the history of women and the dual legacies of slavery and colonization. It’s a book about what was available, what wasn’t, and how women have sustained their communities despite all odds. The episode also features answers to listeners' questions (for more about Leanne Brown's book that Julia mentions, Good and Cheap, head here!) and a shout out to Brownsville Community Culinary Center (to learn more about them, head here). For information about the February 21st event Suzanne, Michelle, and Julia will be doing together at MoFAD in Brooklyn, head here! Please join if you can.

Two sisters on a mission to share the stories of their Caribbean ancestors, Michelle and Suzanne Rousseau correct common misperceptions around Jamaican food and culture in their stunning new cookbook, Provisions. On this episode of Speaking Broadly, they talk about the women who reached out to them from beyond the veil to urge them on, like their great great grandmother, Ma Briggs, who worked her way up from washerwoman to restaurateur. They honor their female forebears with vegetarian recipes based on ingredients from the ""provisions"" garden pre- and post-Emancipation. Their own narrative is powerful as well—two extraordinary women with different strengths who've collaborated for more than 20 years on restaurants, tv shows, and books and supported each other through the tough times and the good ones.
