4.0 out of 5 stars
A collation of authentic, classic recipes and modern restaurant-style creations,
By E. L. Wisty "If you hear about C. P. Snow exp... (Devon, UK) - See all my reviews (VINE VOICE) (TOP 500 REVIEWER)
This review is from: Malouf: New Middle Eastern Food (Hardcover)
Greg and Lucy Malouf have previously written, among others, three books relating "culinary journeys" through the Middle East - Saha (Lebanon and Syria), Turquoise (Turkey) and Saraban (Iran). Some nice recipes in these for sure, but they were much more coffee table books than cookbooks, with a large proportion of the text relating their journey and the photography being less food related and more what they like to call "evocative", revolving around old blokes lounging around smoking ciggies and so on.Thankfully, this new release is all about the food. It perhaps does not come as too much of a surprise to learn that there is a significant amount of recycling here, with a considerable number of recipes carried across verbatim from those earlier publications. There are however more than enough fresh modern creations herein to make it a worthwhile purchase even for those who have the earlier three. Probably around a third of the recipes have photographs. The photography is excellent, and many of the recipes, especially the modern creations, are beautifully styled and worthy of presentation at top fancy restaurants - plenty of colour with use of edible flowers for example. One minor annoyance is that where some photographs are overleaf rather than opposite the recipes' text, the photographs are not labelled. One slightly greater annoyance is the recipe text, which is in a not particularly large font and in too light a grey colour - not necessarily easy to read for some of us. Yet another instance of the self-indulgence of the book stylists overriding usability and practicality. This would be a definite five star book, but loses one star through a combination of rehashing existing recipes, the not so easy to read text, plus it would be nicer to have more of the excellent photography for more of the dishes.

4.0 out of 5 stars
Middle Eastern exploration in the comfort of your own home...,
By Linh (Melbourne Australia) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Malouf: New Middle Eastern Food (Hardcover)
Malouf: New Middle Eastern Food What an absolute delight this cookbook is from the King and Queen of Middle Eastern cookery in Australia. Quality binding, great recipe format and mouth watering pictures. Not every recipe is accompanied by a photograph which is a little disappointing, but this is still a gem of a book. If you only had room for one Middle Eastern cookbook this would be it. Modern quirky take on a tradtional cuisine which delivers flavours in abundance. The price is an absolute bargain.
