In 2018, Michael Rakowitz’ Lamassu sculpture on the Fourth Plinth at London’s Trafalgar Square was unveiled. This Lamassu was built from thousands of date syrup cans, objects laden with historical significance. For decades, until the industry was decimated by war, dates had been Iraq’s second biggest export after oil. As the Lamassu sat upon the Fourth Plinth, Rakowitz invited forty one celebrated and pioneering chefs to create new and classic dishes to showcase the rich versality of date syrup, a central ingredient in Iraqi cooking. Chefs and food writers included Yotam Ottolenghi, Alice Waters, Claudia Roden, Reem Kassis, Prue Leith, Jason Hammel, Nuno Mendes, Thomasina Miers, Giorgio Locatelli and Marcus Samuelsson.
