More than a cookbook

Soulfull is an independently published cookbook that lives somewhere between a creative archive and a cultural time capsule. More than a list of ingredients, it celebrates the people behind the meals, their memories, heritage and the beautifully unpolished kitchens where recipes are passed on.

‍

– 12 recipes grounded in family, culture, memory and place
– 12 QR-linked recipe films showing each dish being made
– 12 commissioned original artworks created in response to the recipe stories
– 4 original poems, with filmed readings
– A companion spotify CO:TALKS video podcast series featuring the cooks, artists, poets, creative collaborators and impact partners behind the publication
– Editorial photography, illustration and immersive graphic design
– Native ingredient guidance developed with Bush to Bowl
– Sustainable, local, seasonal food with Good & Fugly
– Handmade ceramics from waste created with Kevala Ceramics
– A giving-back initiative supporting OzHarvest

Designed as an immersive editorial experience, it is the kind of book you leave on the coffee table to begin a conversation, then take into the kitchen to begin a meal.

Read the story. Watch the conversation. Cook the recipe. Gather around the table.

Soulfull was built to create impact beyond the page.

One book helps provide 16 meals. A portion of every sale supports OzHarvest and its work fighting food waste and food insecurity across Australia.

The recipes also celebrate seasonal and imperfect produce through Good & Fugly, while our collaboration with Bush to Bowl invites readers to learn about native ingredients with greater knowledge, respect and connection to Country.
