“Scrub Your Armpits with Seaweed” Seaweed Cookbook

$30.00

Scrub Your Armpits with Seaweed is a handmade Risograph-printed cookbook in an edition of 120 copies. It features 16 original recipes from Hilary Clare Kennedy (https://elementalfoods.earth) that draw flavor, texture and delight from a variety of seaweeds harvested by Smithereen Farm in Cobscook Bay, way downeast Maine. The book is also a paean to the pleasures and responsibilities of living by the sea and making use of these incredibly nutritious but ecologically sensitive sea vegetables. Thus one learns a bit about how they are harvested with proportionate care, while also indulging in a (virtual) seaweed bath and Spa Day romance. The book concludes with a reprinting of a serious and seriously readable essay by author and Greenhorns founder-director, Severine von Tscharner Welcome, “A Seaweed Manifesto.”
The book is printed on heavyweight and finely mottled Fedrigoni Freelife Kendo and Materica papers, with covers foil stamped on Colorplan boards. Designed and printed by Patrick Kiley in Troy, New York.
