Bodega Bakes Book
By Paola Velez
Growing up in the Bronx, Paola Velez’s happy place was the bodega, a unique world full of color and flavor where the shelves were stocked with everything from M&M’s to majarete (Caribbean corn pudding). Paola a James Beard–nominated chef, and cofounder of the grassroots social action network Bakers Against Racism, in her debut cookbook Bodega Bakes transforms cherished Dominican snacks and bodega finds into irresistible recipes that celebrate her heritage and the ingredients (including chocolate) that have inspired her.
