It’s a wonderful collection of stories and recipes that captures Eric’s deep connection to Ghana and how the country’s cuisine has shaped his career. Eric has appeared on <em>Top Chef</em> and various Food Network programming, and he shares his amazing story and the deep reporting that went into this special book.</p><p>Also on the show are sisters <strong>Alia and Radwa Elkaffas</strong>, who have been creating food videos together for over a decade. Known online as the Food Dolls, they’ve built a following with craveable recipes that blend their Egyptian heritage with their Midwestern upbringing. Now it’s all enshrined in their new debut cookbook: <a href=\"https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/743705/pretty-delicious-by-alia-elkaffas-and-radwa-elkaffas/\"><em>Pretty Delicious</em></a>. It’s so fun chatting with Alia and Radwa about finding cooking inspiration, working together as sisters, and much more.</p><p><em>Do you enjoy This Is TASTE?
