This book, containing 165 recipes, features dishes of Armenian origin as well as a variety of culinary delights from different backgrounds. It is a testament to the vibrant Armenian culture nurtured by Armenian women in the Washington, D.C. region.
This book is the result of a creative project by Armine Galstyan. It serves a dual purpose: collecting and preserving recipes used by Armenian women living in the Washington Metropolitan area today and showcasing their resilience and strength through their culinary traditions and individual stories. Beyond the delicious dishes found within its pages, this book aims to preserve the rich heritage and personal stories of Armenian women.
The Forget-Me-Not flower, symbolizing remembrance and resilience, holds special significance, reminding us of the enduring spirit of Armenian women who carry the collective memory of their ancestors. Through their strength and perseverance, they ensure that traditions and values are passed down, honoring the sacrifices of those who came before them.
