Welcome to
Jollof & Jambalaya Press

Our Mission

At Jollof & Jambalaya Press, we offer a rare and refreshing experience for readers and writers alike. Each title features a chef, writer, farmer, or another culinary voice from the Black diaspora, ensuring their personal narrative is heard and cherished. Inspired by the commitment to profit-sharing and community-backing model created by Somekind Press' groundbreaking Takeaway book series that raised money for restaurants during the Covid-19 pandemic, our memorably-crafted paperback books serve as both cultural archives and works of advocacy. We aim to foster a participatory space for storytelling and to directly support members of the Black food community.
