  • Classic chickpea and sesame seed spread (Hummus b tahini)

    • Wrluedke on December 08, 2019

      I lived in the middle east for a year and coming back I missed the great hummus. Taboulie's recipe was fantastic. When time is an issue I've adapted this to using canned 29 oz can of chickpeas. I drain it and use save the liquid. You can just start on page 14 by adding the chickpeas to the food processor and use the can liquid in place of the cooking liquid. Also, if you want either the canned or cooked super creamy take off the skins of all the chickpeas. It doesn't change the taste only the texture.

  • Onion and tomato salad (Basal wa banadoura salata)

      I threw this together quickly for a cookout. Everyone liked it.

  • Sautéed dandelion greens with caramelized onions (Hindbeh)

      This recipe was delicious and reminded me so much of my grandmother! Meijer has beautiful organic hindbeh. Don’t skimp on the olive oil.

Publishers Text

Since she was six years old, Julie Ann Sageer (nicknamed Julie Taboulie by her close-knit family) has had a passion for cooking the meals of her Lebanese heritage. Just like in her Emmy-nominated cooking show Cooking with Julie Taboulie, each of her recipes comes with hands-on instructions, tips, and tricks for making homemade Middle Eastern dishes using heaps of fresh, seasonal ingredients. Here you’ll find dishes that range from classics like falafel, shawarma, and (of course) taboulie, to warming Bazilla?a stew of tomato, green pea, and lamb?to honey and rosewater-infused desserts.

In these 125 recipes, you’ll learn how easy it is to make such Lebanese staples as fresh labneh (strained yogurt) and how to put together your own delicious, multi-purpose spice mixes. In addition to the delicious meat and chicken dishes, Lebanese cuisine offers a wide variety of vegetarian, pescatarian, vegan, and gluten-free dishes, usually with no substitutions whatsoever! Every chapter includes a multitude of dishes for eaters of all kinds and preferences, from meat-lovers to veggie-heads and everything in between.
