Future books?

[Rosie]

This is your first cookbook. Are you planning on writing more? If so, do you think your next book will follow the same structure? Will it be about the same region or perhaps an adjoining region?

[Marina Chang]

Yes, I am planning on writing another cookbook which will likely follow the same or similar structure. However, the next one will focus on foods of the Hawaiian Islands. Hawaii is another location where numerous peoples have stopped off or stayed, lending great influence over the locally prepared foods. As isolated islands, I believe the history and evolution of Hawaiian ingredients and cooking will make an interesting cookbook.

If and when we reach a second printing for Tastes of the Pyrenees, I would like to expand the book a bit with sections on the cheeses of the region, as well as some of the other food products and ingredients for which some areas are famous, such as mushrooms, foie gras, nuts, and the various culinary oils.
