I constantly browse 101 cookbooks, by Heidi Swanson. Her recipes are always fresh with a nod to global influences. And this morning while browsing for recipes, I stumbled upon a post she did about the cookbook Jerusalem. I've seen this cookbook before and never picked it up because I had no clue what Jerusalem-eque food is about. But, i'm heading out the door to buy it now, because Heidi posted a delicious looking Fattoush recipe that has my mouth watering.
Fattoush is basically the best kind of salad because it incorporates a lot of naan or pita. The recipe is a bit more involved than most salads, but it looks absolutely worth it. You can find the recipe here.
Nothing is better than a cookbook with a lot of beautiful photos.

I attempted to make it and it was delicious!!
DeleteThat cookbook is awesome! I bought it for my mom for Christmas this year, and having been to Jerusalem recently I can attest to the fact that the recipes looked very authentic and delicious! xoxo
ReplyDeleteOh man...I definitely need to go and grab this cookbook now!
DeleteThat looks so yummy! I would trade lettuce for bread any day!
ReplyDeleteI borrowed "Jerusalem" from the library, and it's a WONDERFUL cookbook. So much so that I bought my own copy. :) I'm looking forward to trying his recipe for Shakshouka. Mmmm......("Plenty" is the other one by Ottolenghi - also fantastic.)
ReplyDeleteOhhh I will have to look up Ottolenghi! And thanks for the reminder that you can rent cookbooks at the library! I totally forgot how awesome that is!
DeleteIt's one of the best cookbooks I've come across in a long, long time. My friend Beth and I loved it so much we created Tasting Jerusalem, a virtual cooking community that explores Middle Eastern cuisine through the lens of the Jerusalem cookbook. We invite you to join us! It's on Tasting Jerusalem on Facebook, Pinterest and Google+. On twitter, we use the hashtag #tastingjrslm.
ReplyDeleteThat is awesome! Thanks for the invite! My husband is part syrian/Lebanese and I would love to start cooking some authentic dishes for him!
