The previous three posts bring me to another suggestion for your
already creaking book shelves.
There are some books that are destined to stay on your shelves
gathering dust and there are others, as in this case, that become
invaluable and form part of an ever growing reference library. If
it's possible to become attached to inanimate objects, books do it
for me!
If
you've enjoyed the “sharing” theme and want to know more, why not
try Claudia Roden's “Arabesque A taste of
Morocco, Turkey & Lebanon”.
This jewel was first published in 2005 so I suppose in today's terms
of cookery book publication it's probably not on the best seller
list.
This book is bursting at the seams with history and information from
all three Countries mentioned along with recipes covering starters,
mezze, mains and desserts.
If you liked the posts on tagines and mezze you'll love it.
I know that these days the fashion is to up-date or re-work a recipe
and there may be certain circumstances where it's appropriate, but
there are some books where the expression “if it ain't broke don't
fix it” most definitely applies and this book is one of them.
Is your appetite
suitably whetted? If so, there are more jewels from Claudia Roden –
A New Book of Middle Eastern Food, Tamarind & Saffron,
Mediterranean Cookery
– the list goes on.
Inspirational!
