In Taiwan and across the Chinese-speaking world, the transition period into motherhood is treated with such reverence that it has its own name: zuò yuè zi—to sit the month. New mothers are expected to rest for a full month to heal, aided by a diet of warming herbal dishes to help repair the womb and reenergize the new mother. Inspired by her own experience “sitting the month,” Clarissa Wei gives readers 88 recipes adapted for home cooks and informed by Chinese medical doctors and herbalists. Egg Drop Seaweed Soup and Salmon Miso Soup help to detox the body; Scallion Oil Chicken and Black Vinegar Pork Knuckle Stew are thought to support tissue repair; Ten Tonic Supreme Soup, the mother of all postpartum recovery broths, is designed to combat deep fatigue. Sitting the Month returns care and love to the early stages of motherhood, promising nourishment for all stages of life.

An in-depth exploration of the vibrant food and culture of Taiwan, including never-before-seen exclusive recipes and gorgeous photography.Taipei-based food journalist Clarissa Wei presents Made in Taiwan, a cookbook that celebrates the island nation’s unique culinary identity—despite a refusal by the Chinese government to recognize its sovereignty. The expansive book contains deeply researched essays and more than 100 recipes inspired by the people who live in Taiwan today.For generations, Taiwanese cuisine has been miscategorized under the broad umbrella term of Chinese food. Backed with historical evidence and interviews, Wei makes a case for why Taiwanese food should get its own spotlight. Made in Taiwan includes classics like Peddler Noodles, Braised Minced Pork Belly, and Three-Cup Chicken, and features authentic, never-before-seen recipes and techniques like how to make stinky tofu from scratch and broth tips from an award-winning beef noodle soup master.Made in Taiwan is an earnest reflection of what the food is like in modern-day Taiwan from the perspective of the people who have lived there for generations. It is the story of a proud nation—a self-sufficient collective of people who continue to forge on despite unprecedented ambiguity.
