Jerusalem: A Cookbook by Yotam Ottolenghi, Sami Tamimi
5.0
This. This is what a cookbook should be.
Beyond delectable recipes, beyond transcendent pictures, this book delves into what the food means. The history, cultural development, and personal anecdotes are all the more meaningful given the authors are Arab and Jewish.
Can it be so bold as to hope that a shared meal can broker common ground in the Middle East? Sure, but it's the sense I get from this book. And hope needs to be fed, too.
