Publishers Text

This is a completely revised and updated edition of Tess Mallos' influential and iconic The Complete Middle East Cookbook. Instantly heralded as a classic when it was first published in 1977, The Complete MIddle East Cookbook covers more than 500 classic and contemporary dishes from eighteen countries (Greece, Cyprus, Turkey, Armenia, Syria, Lebanon, Jordan, Iraq, Bahrain, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, UAE, Qatar, Oman, Yemen, Egypt, Iran andamp; Afghanistan). Written with the home cook in mind, Tess's recipes are straightforward, simple to follow and work every time. Recipe and chapter introductions give valuable information about how local dishes are prepared and served, while the comprehensive glossary explains unfamiliar ingredients (which are steadily more commonplace in supermarkets today). The Complete Middle Eastern Cookbook is a book that belongs in the kitchen of every household.
