Keeping with our tradition of publishing great stories powered by women, Pear Shaped Press’s newest publication, The Feminist’s Cookbook, is a collection of not only recipes from strong women, but also the inspiring, memorable, and sometimes humorous tales that they associate with their favorite dishes. From foods we learned from the women who came before us, to dishes inspired by heartbreak and challenges, to our favorite drinks with the girls, The Feminist’s Cookbook aims to inspire us all to challenge the tired old stereotypes associated with women in the kitchen, embrace the empowerment of cooking as creative expression and remedy alike, and celebrate the ancient tradition of exchanging stories with good company over good food.

If you are interested in submitting for The Feminist’s Cookbook, please see our Submissions page for more information on recipe categories, guidelines, suggestions and instructions. We will be calling for submissions soon.
