5-0 out of 5 stars Outstanding!
I took a chance on this book and I was very well rewarded.I paid around $10 for it which included the shipping cost.I should have paid $50.This book includes not only specifically Arab recipes, but also Turkish, Persian, and Lebanese specialities.Sometimes the names are different, but they're in there.Lahmacun, Fessenjan, Kibbe, all are here under their Arabic names.I've even tried some of the bread recipes and managed to make a pretty good pita bread.Considering I barely know how to use my oven, this is quite a feat!There is an odd bit where a page seems to be missing in the bread section, as one of the recipes ends abruptly.Otherwise this book was beautiful, with lots of photos and very clear instructions.If you're curious at all about the food of the Arab world, this is a great place to start.

5-0 out of 5 stars Traditional Arabic Cooking
I have a collection of around 700 cookbooks now so I am pretty picky about buying new ones.I checked this one out at the library thinking I would only find a few recipes I liked but ended up liking about every page!I had to have my own book.The recipes are great and most are easy to follow.For the more adventuresome, there are recipes for yogurt and for cheese.I especially found the bread section inviting.I can almost smell them baking.Lots of marinades, pickling, and grilled items, too.I am really looking forward to using the recipes this summer for BBQ's. ...

5-0 out of 5 stars great cookbook
i found this to be a great cookbook, although i already know how to make several of the dishes and the egyptian cooking she does is a little different than what i learned first hand.. all in all , worth the money.. it's a little confusing at first.. the pictures usually follow the recipe on the following page but not always.. they have conversions on the recipes with is fantastic..

5-0 out of 5 stars Awesome Recipes!
My husband is Arabic and I really wanted to cook food for him that he would love.And he does.I do too!I love that there are pictures of all the dishes in the book.The recipes are well written and easy to follow.There is a section in the back describing terms that may not be familiar which helps a lot and I was able to find all the ingredients necessary. There are some simple recipes that do not require a lot of time, and more elaborate recipes that are fun to try.I recommend this book to anyone who wants to try Middle Eastern food or already loves Middle Eastern food.I loved it so much I bought one for each of my aunts as a gift, who are excited to try the recipes, after looking at the books illustrations.

5-0 out of 5 stars Beautiful Cookbook is Must-Have for Your Collection
I always take a little time to skim through cookbooks while at my local bookstore.I like discovering new ingredients, or perhaps just new ways to use already familiar ingredients.I enjoy taking a moment to envision the great dinner parties I will host and the compliments I will receive on the unique and delicious menu I prepared.Above all, I love to stare at the beautiful pictures of the final product as created by the author.While my limited culinary skills may never allow for an exact visual replica of the dish as it's intended, the colorful presentations provide something to which I can aspire.The new cookbook The Savory Secrets of Dodi's Home Cooking by Howida "Dodi" Elhalogy exceeds all of my prerequisites for a great addition to anyone's kitchen collection.

Mrs. Elhalogy grew up in an Egyptian village as the daughter of the province's mayor.Since her family did a lot of entertaining on their large estate, Mrs. Elhalogy learned at a young age to prepare meals for special events and eventually mastered the art of Middle Eastern cooking.She decided to pull together her family's recipes into this beautiful cookbook as a way of preserving a cultural tradition and of introducing a new audience to the amazing flavors and textures found in the dishes of the Middle East.

I was first struck by the beauty of the book.Mrs. Elhalogy uses rich colors of yellow and orange on the cover, along with a photo of garlic, onion and cilantro (I'm already sold ... you cannot do better than those ingredients for a great-smelling kitchen!) to draw her readers into the culinary treasures inside.Once I turned the pages, I found page after page of beautiful pictures highlighting the table presentations that can be created with her recipes.When necessary, there were even "action photos" showing how to proceed correctly with certain steps in the recipe.I am a cook who hesitates to try a new recipe unless I can see the intended end product, so the pictures that accompanied each recipe were much appreciated.

The recipes themselves provided explicit step-by-step instructions.I have tried to work from other cookbooks that take certain steps in the process for granted, inevitably leading me to make a critical error.Not so with the recipes written by Dodi.The recipes develop methodically from the initial washing of ingredients to the necessary garnishes.I feel confident that, even though I would be working with some food that is unfamiliar to me, Dodi has provided enough instruction to ensure my success.And, just in case aspiring cooks of Middle Eastern cuisine still have some concern when working through her recipes, Dodi includes a glossary of some of the more unusual ingredients, along with their alternate names and descriptions.This component of the Helpful Hints section, along with the recipes' Arabic translations on each page, provide an opportunity to learn about the individual foods while you are bringing them together for a meal.

As I read through each recipe, I was struck by an even greater opportunity that this book provides than just creating amazing food.A primary way of learning about a culture is through its traditional foods.I think back to "Culture Days" as a young child at school, when we would bring in a meal from the country of our choice.Learning about food opens the doors to other conversations, and this truth continues into adulthood.Why is a particular ingredient a staple of the diet in certain cultures?What are the most common cooking methods and why are they used?What are the standard customs practiced when eating a meal?I believe that by discussing these questions and other topics that may evolve from the conversation, we can gain greater appreciation and understanding for individuals from around the world.The recipes in The Savory Secrets of Dodi's Home Cooking provide an excellent catalyst for just this purpose.

My husband and I have long considered Middle Eastern cuisine to be among our favorites.I already have tried several of the recipes, including the Tabula Salad and Koshary, to rave reviews around my dinner table.I look forward to wearing out the pages of The Savory Secrets of Dodi's Home Cooking as I teach my own children the great Egyptian traditions that Dodi learned in her own youth and now, thankfully, shares with all of us.For those who are interested in expanding their culinary horizons, or perhaps simply want to enjoy the beauty of a well-planned cookbook, this offering by Howida "Dodi" Elhalogy is a must-have addition to your home library.

5-0 out of 5 stars 'Kitchen cook friendly' recipes that would grace any dining occasion with an Egyptian flair
Born and raised in an agricultural village near Tanta, Egypt (located in the middle of the Nile Delta), Howida (Dodi) Elhalogy began at the age of twelve to help her mother and five sisters prepare the family meals and the special dining occasions required by her father's position as mayor of the province. That is the background story of how Dodi became a culinary expert in the art of Middle Eastern cooking. Drawing upon her many years of experience and expertise, Dodi has collected a variety of her family's traditional style recipes and published them in the pages of "The Savory Secrets Of Dodi's Home Cooking: Middle Eastern Recipes Written In English & Arabic". These bi-lingually presented family recipes showcase a culinary wealth authentic dishes ranging from appetizers, suops, salads, and sauces, to rice dishes, main dishes, and desserts.

Product Description
Eating and speaking are physically linked by the obvious biological fact that both are concerned with the mouth; thus is formed the first of many connections between food and literature. Arabic culture in particular manifests a special concern for this linkage: the Prophet himself reputedly referred to the Qur'an as "God´s banquet."Geert Jan van Gelder´s God´s Banquet surveys the many and varied ways in which food appears in classical Arabic literature, including pre-Islamic poetry, the Qur'an, Islamic poetry and tales, the Thousand and One Nights, and popular genres such as the adab-anthologies and satires. Focusing more on dishes than foodstuffs, on concoctions rather than ingredients, van Gelder is concerned with how food is depicted, as well as how literary texts are shaped by the theme of food. Van Gelder traces this sumptuously rich topic across a broad swath of primary sources. In the process, he explores the connections between food and a great variety of themes central to Arabic culture, such as:· banquets and the prestige of prodigal hospitality · abstinence and piety vs. satiety and sin· smorgasbords and rich, literary diction· food and parody· "the two good things" (al-atyaban) -food and sex -without which life is not worth livingGod´s Banquet also investigates the representations of stereotypical diets to distinguish different types of people -contrasting, for example, Sufis and Bedouins, princes and peasants, aesthetes and "women of easy virtue." More unusual subjects, such as the roles of various dishes in dream interpretation, as well as the idea of the text itself as a sort of banquet, also receive witty and lucid treatment in van Gelder´s expert hands.God´s Banquet provides a feast of food-lore in one of the world´s most important cultures and a well-hewn gem of literary analysis for anyone interested in Arabic literature. ...

5-0 out of 5 stars Innovative and illuminating
This innovative book illuminates both culinary and literary history. Van Gelder surveys the ways food appears in classical Arabic literature, including pre-Islamic poetry, the Qur'an, Islamic poetry and tales, theThousand and One Nights, and popular genres such as the adab anthologiesand satires. To show how food both forms and reveals aspects of Arabculture, he considers ban-quets and the prestige of prodigal hospitality;abstinence and piety versus satiety and sin; smorgasbords and rich literarydiction; and food and parody. Focusing more on dishes than ingredients, theauthor is concerned with how food is depicted, as well as how literarytexts are shaped by the theme of food. His command of the sources ismagisterial, and he has a gift for unexpected conjunctions and deftphrasing that illuminate both literature and culture. ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars Healthy Syrian and Lebanese Cookingby Helen Corey
I LOVE this cookbook!Last night I wanted to make stuffed yellow squash, "koosa mehshee" so I immediately checked Helen's recipe.And then savored a delicious, nutritious, easy-to-prepare meal.

Helen Corey cooks with love, verve and passion in her soul.Love for sharing God's generous bounty, and she does so with the artistic creativity of a poet.Her cooking demo-s are as graceful as a ballet performance, filled with steady explanations and tips, and punctuated with tasty samples for the audience.

I have gifted The Art of Syrian Cookery to numerous friends - including vegetarians- and to family, especially the nieces and nephews.I also use Food from Biblical Lands for church bread, and religious holiday menus and meals.

Healthy Syrian and Lebanese Cooking is an excellent, user-friendly cookbook, chock full of healthy,traditional recipes from Syria and Lebanon.Unquestionably some of the best soul food in the world!

Author! Author!Bravo Helen.Thank you

Product Description
It is important for historians studying West Africa before the sixteenth century, particularly social and economic historians, to know what the basic foods were before the arrival of crops from the Americas such as maize, cassava, ground nuts, red peppers and tomatoes. Medieval Arabic historians and geographers recorded a great deal of information about social and economic life in Africa during the period and this is a full-scale attempt to make use of the material related to foodstuffs and the preparation of the food. The references collected from the Arabic texts are interpreted in the light of the work of modern ethnographers and the descriptions given by travellers in more recent times. ... Read more

Product Description
A beautiful new cookbook, writen entirely in Arabic--Inaâam Atalla introduces us to the exotic flavors and colors of Lebanese cuisine using an abundance of wholesome ingredients, combined with fresh herbs and subtle spices, to make delicious and healthy dishes. This book is the product of her wealth of experience and her desire to dispel the complexities and mysteries surrounding Middle Eastern cookery by using simple techniques and easily available ingredients. With her obvious enthusiasm, the author inspires the reader to attempt a variety of easy-to-follow recipes, from the simplest soup to the more complicated main course, and from traditional recipes such as tabbouleh and kibbeh to the more unusual and creative variations that have been developed by her for the menu at her restaurant.Your level of experience is immaterial: supplemented by beautiful color photography, Inaâamâs anecdotes and tips for the cook create the illusion that this is a personal cookery lesson between author and reader, while the book as a whole remains simply a pleasure to read. ...
