Last week, Coolio died, and whilst many are understandably celebrating his music—not least his 1995 Grammy Award-winning single Gangsta's Paradise, for which he is best known—this feels like the perfect space in which to highlight a list of his. It’s the contents page from Cookin’ with Coolio, the cookbook he released in 2009, and I love it a lot.
