Product Description
The food of Lebanon has long been rated as one of the great cuisines of the world. Healthy, simple to prepare, full of fresh flavours and sensual aromatics, it makes great use of grains, vegetables, pulses, fruit, nuts, grilled mead, fish, olive oil and yoghurt. In this evocative new book, Nada Saleh, a trained nutritionist and talented cook, presents 200 imaginative recipes from her native Lebanon.
Throughout she draws upon her many happy memories of a vibrant and sun-baked land - the family occasions when they ate in the shade of the poplar trees, enjoying mezze (traditional appetisers), meshwi (grilled meat) and locally grown fresh fruits of the season alongside delicate sweet dishes, washed down with Turkish coffee. From tempting vegetable and salad dishes like Yoghurt and Spinach Salad, via delicate Cod with Tahini to enticing Upside Down Aubergines, Stuffed Meat Roast and mouthwatering Walnut, Pistachio and Date Pastries and Molasses with Sesame Cream and Fig Jam, this charming book is a joy to cook from and is suffused with warmth and love for a distant land that, even in adversity, beguiles and inspires.

Walnut (dip) with cayenne, Fragrant pomegranate with pine nut salad, Stuffed meat pot-roast, Sultanas and raisins in fragrant water and Thyme bread. Also included are the better known dishes such as tabbouleh, falafel etc.
The recipes are arranged as follows:
Salads, Vegetables and Grains

Fish
Poultry and Eggs
Meats
Stews
Yoghurt
Conserves and Jams

Each chapter is preceded by narrative about festivals and how particular types of food 'fit in' with everyday Lebanese life. For those you who like glossy photographs of the recipes then this book will be a disappointment to you as there are no photographs. However, the recipes are appetising and for me, that is more important than colour pictures anytime. An excellent book.
