The Taste of Egypt Home Cooking from the Middle East

Winner of Best Mediterranean Cuisine Book (Gourmand World Cookbook Awards)

"The best Egyptian cookbook I have ever come across. . . . Dyna gives us more than a taste of Egypt, she shares with us her genuine passion for food and she entices us to discover or re-discover Egyptian cooking."—Lisa Kaaki, Arab News

A modern approach to one of the world’s oldest cuisines, new in paperback!

Combining mouthwatering recipes with a fresh, contemporary design, The Taste of Egypt brings the sophisticated colors and flavors of Egyptian and Middle Eastern cuisine to the modern home kitchen in unpretentious, down-to-earth style. Impress your dinner guests with sublime appetizers such as stuffed-vine leaves and roast eggplant dip. Cook up a storm with silky cumin-infused lentil soup, sensational spiced meatballs, and delicious artichokes cooked in red pepper sauce. There are summery salads to fill a picnic hamper and hearty slow-cooked beans and basterma (fenugreek-spiced cured beef) to evoke the bustling warmth of a Middle Eastern food market. And the recipes for sweet delights are designed to satisfy even the most persistent sweet tooth. Presented in a vibrant, accessible style, The Taste of Egypt is a celebration of a great culinary tradition and an exciting addition to the repertoire of the modern home cook.
