Reader Reviews:
One of the best cookery books ever written (9/9 people found this helpful)
This is not only about Hoummos and Tabbouleh although you will find them there and they are really delicious. There are so many unexpected regional recipes which I really enjoyed making and eating. Quite a few of them are now in my list of top ten favourite recipes of all times like the fish stew, Samak Bi--roz, the Ima soup and even the deceptively simple cabbage salad. Nada Saleh- the writer of this book- has the most exquisite palate. Her recipes make you realise the difference between a good cook and a culinary genius. . Everyone who has Lebanese for dinner, fancies themsleves as a great cook and believes they are born lucky should have it, it will be a real surprise . If you just want to try cooking Lebanese I am sure you will thank me for recommending it. Before having "Fragrence of the Earth" in my kitchen my dinner was 80% Italian, now it is 80% Lebanese.
