The Food of Morocco: A Journey for Food Lovers
The Food of Morocco gives you a real taste of one of the world's most diversified cuisines. Join our culinary journey from the souks of Marrakesh to the home kitchens of Rabat, through the tea houses of Casablanca and the extravagant banquets of Fes, and discover the food that defines today's Moroccan cooking: crispy briouats with seafood, a rich fragrant lamb tagine, or deliciously sweet honey cakes.
Each recipe is photographed as it is made, and is accompanied by useful hints and tips. Beautiful photographs shot in Morocco illustrate the variety of ingredients used in this delectable food: from market-fresh Mediterranean vegetables and seafood, to meats and a wealth of herbs, spices and condiments.
To partner the recipes, there are special features on many of the food ideas that encompass the Moroccan way of life. A glossary of food, cooking and equipment helps you identify and source your ingredients and offers helpful tips on substitution.

My second most used cookbook. This is a beautiful cookbook and all the recipes I've tried have been delicious and worthy of cooking many times. I've learned how to make Harissa and preserved lemons from within these pages, as well as how to properly steam couscous (a performance if you don't have a couscoussier but worth it for special meals).
The tangia is spicy and wonderful, and the beef in tomato jam is delish. Everything is delish in this, I feel like cooking some Moroccan food now. And the author doesn't make it seem intimidating (which, before buying this book, I always assumed it to be), each recipe is well explained, beautifully photographed and put in the context of a Moroccan meal. If you've never cooked Moroccan food before but this book, I can guarantee you'll be cooking it regularly as I now do.
