Recipes: Middle Eastern Cooking - Foods of the World Series
by
4.18 avg rating — 40 ratings
"I couldn't find a single entry for this collection > Foods of the World was a series of 27 cookbooks published by Time-Life, beginning in 1968 and extending through the late 1970s, that provided a broad survey of many of the world's major cuisines. The individual volumes were written by well-known experts on the various cuisines and included significant contemporary food writers, including Craig Claiborne, Pierre Franey, James Beard, Julia Child, and M.F.K. Fisher, and was overseen by food writer Michael Field who died before the series was complete. The series combined recipes with food-themed travelogues in an attempt to show the cultural context from which each recipe sprang.
:) And, I chose the middle eastern book here because I am middle eastern and I thought that was a nonbrainer."
