"What's Cooking in Guyana"
Cookbook!

(courtesy of MacMillan-Caribbean Publishers)

The original idea for What's Cooking in Guyana was the inspiration of the staff and students at the Carnegie School of Home Economics situated in the country's capital city, Georgetown. Originally published in 1994, this fascinating and practical recipe book has proved a great success (both locally and amongst the Guyanese Diaspora) and this second edition, with a new four-colour format, has been completely revised and updated to coincide with the Carnegie School's 70th Anniversary celebrations. There are new recipe sections featuring well-known Indian and Amerindian dishes, created by the catering department at the Carnegie School and tried and tested by the staff and students.

A background to food preparation is also included at the beginning of the book to provide a useful guide to some basic facts about the ingredients that are being used.

Accompanied by new colour photographs, it is hoped that this new edition will do much to stimulate interest in, and use of, local Guyanese foods and culinary products that home-makers, amateur cooks and chefs will take a delight in preparing and presenting and, in doing so, develop a culinary skill that is unique to the Carnegie School and to Guyana.

The Carnegie School of Home Economics, formerly the Carnegie Trade School, was founded in 1933 with a grant donated by the Carnegie Trustees and an additional grant from the United Kingdom funds for the relief of unemployment. In 2003 it celebrated its 70th anniversary of teaching culinary skills to students and formed a committee to produce the new edition of What's Cooking in Guyana.
