Shedding light on kitchen culture behind bars

Six current prison inmates — five of which were convicted of murder — have published a cookbook of 200 recipes called From the Big House to Your House.. The women have found ways to cook despite strict prison regulations, and cut foods with ID cards, rehydrate potato chips for “baked potatoes,” and get garlic flavor from garlic vitamin supplements. Yum? You can buy it on Amazon.
