While Entertaining Magazine Vol. 2

Frustrated with the lack of diversity in food and home entertaining content, While Entertaining was created as a platform to celebrate the many ways Black culture influences how we all eat, gather, and live. While Entertaining publications highlight the Black food and beverage producers, chefs, home cooks, and food enthusiasts whose stories have been marginalized and misrepresented in mainstream food media.

Volume Two of While Entertaining is a collection of reflections and recipes from foodies around the U.S. In the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic, social unrest, and political uncertainty, cooking and journaling became a form of self-care for many. The people we connect with in Volume Two gave us access to what they were thinking, feeling, and cooking throughout the past year. We hope these stories and recipes will help you bring more delicious food and thought-provoking conversation to your table.
