The Middle Eastern Cookbook Paperback – Illustrated, June 14, 2016

I purchased this book for my daughter, who is in college and discovering new cuisines that she enjoys. When she asked for a Middle Eastern cookbook for Christmas, I found this one on Amazon and based on the reviews thought it would be a good purchase.My daughter loves the book. She flipped through it with me after receiving it and pointed out several recipes she looks forward to trying. She said the ingredient lists are simple enough (although at IU, she has access to several international markets and can purchase special ingredients if necessary) and the directions are easy to follow. The photos in the book are appetizing, as are the descriptions of the various recipes. I know she is looking forward to trying many of the recipes--she is very excited about having this book at her disposal.I would recommend this book to anyone who has curiosity about Middle Eastern foods and cooking.

Loved this book as it reminded me of my time in the ME

I’ve used several of the recipes in this cookbook and they turned out really well. Definitely worth buying if you like the recipes it has.

This is a very fine recipe book. I like that the recipes give a country of origin even though I know that certain dishes are used all through the Middle East. I can see that each recipe is therefore a version of that dish. The recipes are easy to read and follow. I borrowed the book 3 times from the public library before I realized I needed to have my own copy.

I'm so excited that it had the recipes that I really wanted thank you so much

This was a birthday gift for my sister who's been trying to cookmiddle eastern dishes for her palestinian husband and turns outit was a great gift for BOTH of them. The instructions were easyto understand; big colorful photos and she was able to followmany of the recipes easily and learned new twists on somedishes she's already used to preparing.

Some really great recipes in here. If your looking for something different, this is a good place to start.

Bought this book for a friends bday. She loves it. Actually using the recipes. Reminds us of the Jerusalem restaurant in Denver co that we net at once a month for years.Now I'm in RI and she is in Calif. So this was the perfect gift. She raves about the recipes and how authentic it is.
