Recipe Illustrations

Recipe Illustrations

Before computers, home cooks used to clip, jot down, and share their favorite recipes on paper. Cookbooks were essentially a collection of these recipes. This project recreates that analog approach to cooking by printing beautifully illustrated recipe cards that people can cook from, take notes on, and share with their friends. This project is a collaboration with my friend and artist Saba Hamidi (@madebysaba).

Current illustrations include:

  • Tahini & Grape Molasses (دبس و طحينة)
  • Ma’amoul Cookies (معمول بالتمر)
  • Sitto’s Rice Pudding (رز بالحليب)
  • Muhammara (محمّرة)
  • Sujuk Rolls (سجق رولز)
  • Rose Ice Cream (بوظة الورد)
  • Heytaliyye (هيطلية)
