Dalikan: Heirloom Recipes of the Cordillera Vol.2

Dalikan is an Ilokano, Bontoc, Kankanaey, and Kalinga word, generally used in the Cordillera to mean stove, fireplace or hearth. It represents the heart of the home where the family gathers to provide sustenance and to kindle loving relations.

"This second collection of indigenous recipes from the Cordillera highlights many things that characterize indigenous peoples and communities all over the world - the interconnectedness of people, food, eating and the environment, dependence of people on their environment for food and medicine and other basic needs, how nature provides for people's needs and the healthy indigenous diet, all these contributing to the health and wellness of indigenous peoples. This book also shows the important role that the seemingly ordinary task of cooking has on family and Community life and solidarity." -- Dr. Penelope A. Domogo, Editor
