Cindy Brooks, chef at the Ucross Foundation, has shared her recipes here and there among fellow Wyoming residents and those she has met traveling.

With a sudden increase of free time amid the pandemic, however, she took it upon herself to compile her recipes in a cookbook reflecting the culture of Ucross and its residents.

The resident-centered cookbook features an array of Brooks’ recipes, most by popular demand, as well as creative essays and landscape photographs from 10 Ucross alumni artists. The essays detail the former residents’ experiences at Ucross and its cuisine, Brooks said.

“Over the years, people have asked for recipes, and I would always say the same thing: ‘I’m busy cooking,’ and didn’t have the time to compile them.” Brooks said. “When COVID hit, we actually had time to compile the recipes.”

Experimenting with cooking for more than 30 years, Brooks’ has a vast cooking repertoire, including work as a private chef, caterer, restaurant chef and restaurant owner. For the past 12 years, she has debuted her recipes to the residents of Ucross.

Her cooking is greatly influenced by her travels.

“The recipes reflect the experiences I’ve had as a chef and traveling over the years developing different recipes and bringing them here and developing what I’ve seen here,” Brooks said.

Because many of the Ucross residents only stay a month, Brooks said she liked to pack the menu with various international dishes.

“I try to keep it interesting for the residents as well as me,” she said.

Cree LeFavour, former Ucross resident, co-authored the cookbook and greatly aided its writing outside of the recipes themselves. LaFavour and Brooks corresponded over numerous Zoom meetings.

“[LeFavour] has a similar sensibility about food that I do so it was a good match,” Brooks said.

The cookbook was funded by a Kickstarter crowdfunding campaign.
