Pedas: A Fiery Cooking Zine is written by Indonesian chef, Rahel Stephanie.

Delving into the heart of Indonesian cuisine with a focus on the vibrant and essential flavor of Pedas (meaning ‘spicy’)”, this cookery publication features six spicy recipes (complete with review notecards), an essay about the importance of sambal, plus reviews of Indonesian street vendors.

Enriched with musings and narratives about local culinary culture, the playful imagery creates an effect that mirrors the “dizzying” effects of consuming spicy meals.

“Apart from being an extension of myself and my cooking practices, this zine is my journey in reclaiming the essence of pedas as an Indonesian woman.” — Rahel Stephanie
