Review: Delicious, easy, homey Palestinian fare. - I first saw the author making a lovely cake on Milk Street, and had to see a copy after hearing Christopher Kimball gush about it. I’m so glad that I did! Every dish we’ve tried has been lovely, and the dishes are pretty relaxing to prepare. Her flavors are lovely, and it’s mostly at the nice and healthy end of the spectrum. We haven’t tried any desserts yet, but if you have a sweet tooth, she’ll tempt you for sure. My thoughts and pics on the dishes we tried: 1) Beef Patties in Grape Leaves – p 150. Absolutely love these! They are filled with meat and vegetables, so you really don’t need to make any side dishes. She lists a few meats to choose from. I did these with ½ lamb and ½ beef and they were fabulous. Our store was out of grape leaves, so I used fresh ones from my husband’s vines out back. desertcart sells them if your store or yard don’t carry them. 2) Tomato, Garlic, and Sumac Salad – p 99. Beautiful, simple, earthy and yummy. I loved the chiles in it. 3) Cauliflower Fritters – p 66. These are fantastic! The recipe only used 1/3 of my cauliflower, and thank goodness for that, because I was able to make a double batch the next day. To my delight, they were total kid magnets. I added a little za’atar and a drizzle of olive oil to the labaneh. 4) My dinner. I’m a BBQ enthusiast and find that the salads in this book go perfectly with the meats I smoke. 5) Eggplant, Yogurt, and Nut Salad – p 96. She has you use the broiler to prepare the eggplant, which makes this super quick and easy to pull together. It’s so pretty and yummy that I’ll add this to my short-on-time entertaining list. 6) My dinner. 7) Za’atar Salad – p 98. Yum! I only think of the spice mix when I see za’atar. She’s referring to a fresh herb here, but lists fresh oregano as a substitute if you can’t find it. I’ve always used fresh oregano with in modest amounts so it wouldn’t overpower dishes. She uses a lot of it as a full salad component rather than just a background flavor and it’s wonderful! This is so fresh and summery! 8) Shrimp in Tomato and Chilli Sauce – p 140. Such and easy, healthy, light, and delicious dish. I just made a nice green salad to go with it. Some others I have flagged to try: Jerusalem Sesame Bagels – p 40 * Za’atar Filled Flatbreads – p 46 * Fried Eggs with Za’atar and Sumac – p 58 * Falafel – p 68 * Palestinian Salad – p 104 * Lentil, Garlic, and Pasta Soup – p 118 * Eggplant, Lentil, and Pomegranate Stew – p 130 * Sweet Pea and Meatball Stew – 132 * Fish with Tahini and Onion Sauce and Pine Nuts – p 136 * Fish in Olive Oil, Lemon, and Cilantro Sauce – p 138 * Shawarma with Onions and Sumac – p 146 * Meatballs in Lemon Garlic Sauce – p 147 * Kafta and Tahini Bake – p 148 * Kafta and Tomato Bake – p 152 * Lamb and Nut Stuffed Aubergine Bake – p 154 * Lentil and Bulgar Pilaf – 164 * Freekeh, Beef, and Vegetable Pies – p 168 * Baked Kubbeh Pie – p 170 * Rice-Stuffed Chicken – p 190 * Maftool with Butternut, Chickpea, and Chicken Stew – p 196 * Toasted Bread Pudding with Cream and Pistachios – p 210 * Baklawa – p 216 * Fenugreek Semolina Cake – p 220 * Cardamom Coffee – p 235 * Dried Fig and Walnut Preserve – p 242
Review: A simple to follow cookbook that lets you discover Palestinian culture and amazing dishes - The cook book is exceptional and the storytelling is simple and insightful. I received the book as a gift from my husband after I told him about it, having discovered Reem Kassis on Instagram. The hummus I made using her recipe is the best hummus I’ve ever had in my life and the rest of the recipes don’t disappoint. It’s a gem and a great gift for the holidays.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect if you need cooking for a Palestinian!
*by S***R on March 25, 2021*

Every recipe I've followed exactly, verbatim, has gotten very high complements from my Palestinian Jordanian husband who was raised on this beautiful traditional delicious food. By my mother in law aiding me in learning this way of cooking, this book has put many of her words in English in a way that I can use and understand. Nothing can replace my wonderful mother in laws teachings, this book is a real aid of genuine traditional recipes that give delightful memories life. This book works in the states and in the Levant, having used the book for cooking in both locations. This is the number one book. I've tried other books on Palestinian cooking that were all cross cultured and disingenuine this is the only true to culture and tradition book or three that is user friendly.eat to follow and read. Easy explanation of unfamiliar ingredients and substitutes for what's not available when outside the Levant. And it still tastes like home. Easy recipe is to its traditional preserved style unaltered by author preference. Some books have author preferences that aren't in the traditional cooking and shows thought the book in all recipes which is awful... The Palestinian table it's free of this error. I can easily find myself lost pin what to cook for dinner the next day, pick up this book and have a answer that pleases everyone tastebuds and appetites easily the next day. I made 'idreh (qidreh/kidreh) Palestinians don't pronounce the qaw sound. My husband didn't give it a 10, he gave it a "PERFECT"! Best purchase ever! Every recipe is a winner and my husband is easy going but happily communicates to me and I wonderfully appreciate his feedback since I wasn't raised on this cooking. Satain! ( bon appetit ) (I'm still not sure what this is in English, but I wish you all good cooking!)
