Syria - recipes from home

Böcker. 2017. 253 sidor.

Syria has always been the marketplace for the most delicious ingredients from East and West, a meeting-point of travellers and traders where spices and sweetness blossom. Nothing unites and inspires Syrians as much as food. Even now, in the country's darkest hour, from tiny flats in Beirut, Berlin and Belgrade, Syrians are searching out the best tomatoes and lemons, pomegranates and parsley, to recreate the taste of home. Friends and passionate cooks Itab Azzam and Dina Mousawi have worked closely with Syrian refugees in Beirut to bring together the very best recipes from one of the world's greatest food cultures. From yoghurt soup with turmeric to cherry meatballs, this is a delicious celebration of the unique taste, culture and food of Syria - and a celebration of everything that food and memory can mean to an individual, to a family and to a nation.
