 Divine! July 30, 2008
A fantastic book, a well worn favourite for this style of cooking, the fact she suggests using recipes as inspiration and not to be afraid of changing something, I found to be a lovely touch.
Everything I have made so far have been massive hits with my family.
A Perfect Book July 27, 2008
Arabesque is written in similar vein to The Book of Jewish Food. There is, again, a lot of socioligical and historical context and the recipes are utterly realiable. The layout is lovely, and the book well indexed. Faultless.
Gorgeous May 23, 2008
Another great book by Claudia Roden. Lovely recipes, easy to follow. A great complement to The Book of Jewish Food.
Could improve layout but not recipes July 13, 2007

The book is split into sections by country, which I think can make it difficult to navigate - if you want to cook a main course with lamb you have to look in each of the three different country chapters to see all the recipes. But the recipes themselves (which is after all the most important thing) are wonderful - inspiring, clear, manageable and delicious, so with a different layout and perhaps a list of mail order suppliers, this could be perfect.

This book leads like a dream.The only difficult bit is actually putting it down to cook the recipes. If you are interested in foods from these regions then start with this book and it will fuel your imagination.
