Calling all Cooks

Skokie Public Library has a variety of cookbooks to help patrons get creative in their own home kitchens. We have cookbooks for foodies, herbivores, carnivores, omnivores, for those on a budget, and books that represent nearly every corner of the globe right here on our shelves in Skokie.

Now that your mouth is watering, watch this video from our YouTube channel of artist Jorge Felix as he talks about sofrito and its importance to Puerto Rican and Caribbean cooking.

Hands On Cooking and Tasting

In addition to the books in our collection, we also regularly host cooking demonstrations and programs. Recently, library patrons had the opportunity to learn how to make dim sum dishes as a part of Coming Together 2017 which celebrated Chinese and Chinese-American culture.
