Publishers Text

Combining culinary history with over one hundred sumptuous recipes inspired by the teachings of Sufism, Sufi Cuisine takes the reader on a sensuous journey of earthly and spiritual delights. The eating and preparation of food is at the heart of Sufi religious practices and beliefs, and the truly inspiring array of dishes-from preserved rose petals and snow helva, to baklava prepared with water in which oak ashes have been soaked overnight-illustrates this beautifully. Full of charming anecdotes, poetry from the great Sufi mystic, Rumi, and delightful recipes, Sufi Cuisine is a pleasure for the mind and the palate.
