Great! I love cookbooks like this one! Really interesting info about little-known greens (and a few other foods), as well as cooking methods. I'll never make more than a few of these recipes, but they will definitely influence my cooking.

It's hard to find, but I kept checking Amazon and finally got a good used copy for not too much.

This volume covers a wide range of countries so there is no in-depth look at one country's cuisine.
It's by a great author of cookbooks on this region, so I have lots of confidence in it. We found several recipes to broaden our culinary adventures.

Everything I've cooked so far from this book has been very tasty. Recipes vary in complexity. I like improvising a bit in the kitchen and this book gave me lots of ideas for food combinations to experiment with. Note: this book has some vegetarian recipes, but most include meat or dairy, even if in modest amounts.

I love reading this cookbook. I have not actually made anything from it yet. Reason: lots of ingredients and multi-step preparation. But soon, I will tackle the greens and grains.

One of my favorite books, one I keep looking to for ideas. My favorite method for stewing kale and white beans is inspired from this book.
