      This was delicious. I made a double tray of them to take for my brother-in-law to BBQ. They smelled amazing to him raw when the cover was removed, held together very well during cooking, and ate very well with the cucumber and yoghurt salad shown top left.

Publishers Text

Discover the oldest, most authentic cuisine in the world in this unique cookbook that explores the basis of all cuisines in the Middle East.

From the world's oldest recorded cuneiform recipes, some 4,000 years ago, there is a straight line to the kitchen of Smuni Turan. Her recipes have been collected by her son in this cookbook. The Oldest Kitchen in the World describes both the oldest cuisine in the world and the culture of the Assyrians. Now scattered all over the world, they all still speak dialects of Aramaic, and more importantly: they still cook the dishes that all Middle Eastern kitchens are indebted to.
