Publisher’s Synopsis (From its website)<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Sixteen-year-old Sarah (it\u2019s pronounced SAH-rah, thank you) has a successful blog creating fusion recipes. When Sarah is invited to compete on Cyber Chef, a virtual cooking competition that soars in popularity at the height of the pandemic, her twists on her Baba\u2019s recipes are not enough to pique the palate of the show\u2019s producers. She is pushed to present dishes that represent her Filipinx culture, but these flavours are foreign to her since her parents raised her emphatically Jewish. To survive Cyber Chef and find her cultural identity, Sarah must discover why her mother turned her back on all things Filipinx, and learn the true meaning of fusion.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
