I am more than satisfied that I bought this book – every Indo should be getting one to pass on to the next generation and keep the “Indo” cooking going on for more generations.

The Center for Folklife and Cultural Heritage is a research center of the Smithsonian Institution.
During her time at The Smithsonian, Gwenna Claproth was tasked with researching and writing an article about the origins of the Dutch Indo “Rijsttaffel” style of cuisine. They just published it and she dedicated it to her grandmother, Bea Claproth. Thanks Jeff Keasberry, Marghuerita ILcken Scaglione and Cousin Carmen for lending her your valuable insight. Love that you are helping to bring attention to our unique cultural heritage and our place in history.
