Linamnam is a thesis project aimed to address familial communication issues by studying food’s social role within Filipino families. It is a digital collection of narratives and recipes featuring family stories and memories surrounding homemade food. The editors chose the contributors in this book based on their unique food experiences, culinary background, and diversity. They have shared a Filipino family heirloom recipe, photos of the dish and their families, as well as thoughts and memories that go beyond the dish itself. The collection’s sections are divided into the narratives’ three main themes: aruga (nurture), pakikisama (togetherness), and gunita (remembrance).
