The Cookbook Club meets once a month to share recipes from a new cookbook off our library shelves. April's pick is Amboy: Recipes from the Filipino-American Dream by Alivin Cailan with Alexandra Cuerdo and Susan Choung.

About the Book: "Filipino recipes from the creator of the legendary Eggslut in LA, host of the hit online series The Burger Show, and the most prominent Filipino chef in the US" -Catalog

Register for any recipe below or any recipe from the cookbook. We will email you a recipe and/or put a cookbook on hold for you. Please register so we know how much cutlery to have on hand. Please see info below from the public health department. Email mwillwerth@manchesterpl.org with any questions.

How it works:

1. Register for a recipe below or call 978-526-7711.
2. Make enough to share (for about 5-10 people) and bring your own serving utensils.
3. Come to the library and be prepared to eat, share, chat, and connect over food. We'll be talking about what you liked or didn't like about the cookbook, how you picked your recipe, and if you modified it at all.

Per the Public Health Department:

• This is a potluck event, the food is donated and shared, it does not come from a licensed kitchen.
• The library is not liable for allergies but all cooks are encouraged to bring an ingredient card with their food so we can be aware of allergens.

Disclaimer: We cannot guarantee that there will be gluten free or vegetarian/vegan options as attendees will choose the dishes they will make. We will, though, have individual meetings that focus on various topics that may feature these kinds of choices.
