Recipes! We want 'em!

The Anchorage Food Mosaic Recipe Blog will contain recipes from all the amazing people that make up our community. Now more than ever we need to come together and celebrate our incredible diversity (there are 94 languages spoken in the Anchorage School District!) And what better way to do that than FOOD? Let us cook each others cultural foods, and share our stories with one another.

This Recipe Blog will contain photos of each person and the story behind their cultural food, as well as tips on where to buy ingredients, and local sourcing.

Please email recipe submissions to akfoodmosaic(at)gmail.com

The Anchorage Food Mosaic Project’s mission is to build community through our cultural foods.

In agriculture, a monoculture replaces lots of genetically diverse plants with one uniform crop, which is highly susceptible to disease and failure. In the same way that monocropping is dangerous to the future of a crop; we must encourage diversity within our community to prevent disease. In order for our community to thrive we need to embrace and nurture the “mosaic” of people in this city.
