Around The World Cookbook

by Abigail Johnson Dodge

With foods like hummus and Pad Thai becoming as common as meatloaf and apple pie, it s no surprise that international foods are hotter than ever. Kids today are growing up in an increasingly multicultural world, and with Around the An International Cookbook for Children , they can eat like it, too!



While cooking these traditional cuisines, kids also learn about the countries they re how a tandoor oven works, what smorgasbord really means, and how to make a croque monsieur into a croque madame. Together with DK s fun and innovative visual style, the information and recipes in this unique cookbook tie in beautifully with school curriculum and make it an essential part of every young foodie s library.

This is a cookbook designed for you to do with your kids, and who wouldn't enjoy family time in the kitchen?!
My family had the Greek Pork Kabobs, and besides the fact they were easy to make and took no time, they were delicious!
You have to do the cutting, of course, but it is great to build dinner together.
I have to recommend this book, it is fantastic!

Second Review:
A great cookbook that is geared to having your kids help out. Lots of great recipes from all over the world, giving you new experiences to flavor and creations. I personally enjoyed, Greek Pork Kabobs and Vegetable Fried Rice recipes from it, and look forward to cooking more!

Fun to learn about different places and to try cooking yummy foods around the world. Love the map pages that show how all arounf the world we have similar food eaten in different ways (flatbread, cheese, "pocket food", etc...)

Yes, it's a kid's cookbook. I picked it because I was hoping it wouldn't have all the complicated steps that are time-consuming and frustrating. It doesn't, but the food also lacks complicated flavors. I think the recipes will work as a good guideline, and can be tweaked for personal preferences.
