Falastin : a cookbook / Sami Tamimi, Tara Wigley ; foreword by Yotam Ottolenghi ; photographs by Jenny Zarins.
"A soulful tour of Palestinian cooking today from the Ottolenghi restaurants' executive chef and partner-120 recipes shaped by his personal story as well as the history of Palestine"-- Provided by publisher.
When the events of 1948 forced residents from all regions of Palestine together into one compressed land, recipes that were once closely guarded family secrets were shared and passed between different groups in an effort to ensure that they were not lost forever. Tamimi retraces the lineage and evolution of his country's cuisine, born of its agriculturally optimal geography, its distinct culinary traditions, and Palestinian cooks' ingenuity and resourcefulness. He shows that Palestine's food is really the story of its people as he teases out the vestiges of an ancient culinary tradition. -- adapted from Goodreads info.
