Falastin: A Cookbook


Falastin: A Cookbook
As a huge fan of Sami Tamimi, I was so excited for this book. The book is beautifully photographed and most importantly filled with delicious recipes. My favorite chapter so far is the breakfast chapter. I loved the use of Za'atar on the egg dishes. I also made the Green Shakshuka. It is filled with fresh vegetables and herbs. The flavor is wonderful and it has quickly become a favorite recipe. I also made the Pasta with yogurt and parsley breadcrumbs, Chicken Musakhan and Sweet Tahini Bread. Up next I'm going to work my way through the delicious looking sweets section. I'm really enjoying this book because it has introduced me to new flavor combinations and ingredients I've never used before. The recipes are detailed and easy to follow. I enjoyed reading the intros to recipes as well as the various notes throughout the book. I have numerous recipes marked to make and can't wait to try them.
