The Book

What's inside

Made In New York is a memoir woven through with recipes, organized by the five branches of one family. Here's the architecture — and the one thing we won't fake until it's ready.

  1. 01

    Polish-Ukrainian — The Greats

    The oldest branch, Stefan & Anna's table — the source of the family's most-cooked recipes.

    Borscht · Galumpka · Pierogi · Mlyntsi · Chrusciki

  2. 02

    Irish American

    The Beatty line — long-simmered comfort and Sunday cooking, the coddle among them.

  3. 03

    Italian

    The Pannozzos of Fondi, who brought their kitchen across on fifteen dollars.

  4. 04

    Puerto Rican–Scottish

    The Suarezes — Glasgow and the islands meeting at one New York table.

  5. 05

    The Grands

    Mike & Julie — Susan's own parents, and the branch this book is dedicated to.
