William Morrow The Arab Table: Recipes and Culinary Traditions

Viel Text, wenig Bilder. Wenn man konkrete Rezepte sucht, ein echt tolles Kochbuch! Wenn man sich von Bildern inspirieren lassen möchte, eher nicht so geeignet. So oder so, sehr leckere Gerichte enthalten…. Ich bin sehr zufrieden.

Stunning book with accessible recipes that are absolutely delicious. There's no pretentiousness - just solid, well tested dishes with wonderful memories and stories

Great book with plenty of middle-eastern recipes. Tried a few of the recipes and the meals turned out great. I was looking for a book that has all the arabic food recipes I grew up eating, and this is it!

I got this book as a Christmas present for myself and was not disappointed. This cookbook clearly illustrates that a good one is something to read, and not just a collection of recipes. The cooking instructions are clear but what I think is outstanding is the placement of various dishes in a familial and cultural context. The inclusion of the chapter "The Arab Pantry" is a real bonus. It is an alphabetical listing of common (and not-so-common) ingredients with descriptions. The recipes themselves are organized by type of dish and include suggestions regarding other dishes that they might logically be served with. I appreciated that both the "pantry" and the recipes included both the English and Arabic names. I have a feeling that this is going to be one of my favorites in a library of over 200 cookbooks. Shokran.

A must have for all cooking enthusiasts
