CHARLOTTE, N.C., Dec. 20, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Finely curated recipes may not come to mind when you think about lineworkers or the electric grid, but Duke Energy's E-Recipe Book may have you thinking differently when you check out this year's edition, which manages to connect them in a clever way.
This year's book, "Tools of the Trade," developed in collaboration with Johnson & Wales University, was inspired by Duke Energy lineworkers who were asked about their backgrounds, their motivations, their experiences and stories, and most of all the role food plays in their lives.
Duke Energy circulates the book, which is filled with stories, recipes and energy-saving tips, to its customers across a variety of channels. Originally conceived as a creative way to encourage kitchen appliance use years ago, the book, now offered digitally, has grown to become a favorite staple among the company's 3.7 million residential customers.
"We couldn't think of better inspiration for creative recipes this year than our lineworkers who are dedicated to helping power our communities," said Taryn Sims, Duke Energy's vice president, Marketing, Insights and Customer Engagement. "Once we had an opportunity to learn more about them and document their stories, the culinary artists at Johnson & Wales University were able to create bold, exciting and memorable recipes that highlight their stories and personality traits."
"We were thrilled to work with Duke Energy again this year and help create a unique, nutritious, and flavorful customer gift that showcased the creativity and talents of our faculty and students," said Jerry Lanuzza, MS Ed., CHE., associate professor, College of Food Innovation & Technology, Charlotte Campus, Johnson & Wales University. "We are grateful to Duke Energy for giving our students a unique hands-on opportunity to work side by side with a professional media team, photographer and food stylist that not only enriched their academic careers but has also fostered a culture of community collaboration."
This year's offering includes eight recipes inspired by lineworkers across several Duke Energy service territories:
