you know, there are a lot of recipes in this book that are pretty simple, and then there are ones that are a little tricky, but more time consuming than actually difficult... the beet salad is really easy. the carrots and cumin is also awesome too.No likes Can’t Like Unlike Like No likes
1 like Can’t Like Unlike Like 1 likei got this book as a gift from my mom. the recipes are really awesome. i went through a serious fixation on moroccan and middle eastern cooking and i feel like this book offered me a lot of different ways of looking at basic middle eastern ingredents and thinking about different ways of using them in both sweet and savory dishes. all sorts of simple and more complicated recipes. i have made a few of the squash dishes and they were all wonderful. the beet and cumin salad is also out of this world.
so, to make the book even cooler,...
- Beet and Cumin Salada super delicious and savory cool salad. the sweetness of the beets is really complimented by the spice and the vinegar in it gives it a nice pucker. SO good...No likes Can’t Like Unlike Like No likes

my mom got me this cookbook a few years ago for christmas. i have used it to make a few different types of cookies, and i have consulted it for pie making tips. all sorts of different recipes for savory, sweets, and drinks, not all are super tedious and complicated. all in all, its pretty good.

I bought this cookbook for the cheesey country song title named foods (Stand By Your Man and Make Him Some Old Fashoned Tea Cakes p. 237- so awesome) and wasn't really planning on ever actually using it. But lately I have been going to a string of BBQs and have busted this one out a few times and it is actually a really nice cookbook. So far I have found it's pretty great for baked beans, bbq sauces, and desserts and all of the recipes are relatively simple and quick.
In addition to haveing some pretty traditional, tried-and-true southern recipes, the...

However, I use real butter instead of margarine. I think it would also be great with some berries tossed in.No likes Can’t Like Unlike Like No likes
i LOVE this cook book! though the recipes often call for meat or fish, one can get creative. i made the moussaka with fake ground beef and vegan mozzarella and vegan ricotta and it was just amazing. the soups are also just beautiful, i make them all of the time.No likes Can’t Like Unlike Like No likes- No likes Can’t Like Unlike Like No likes
ok, i'm going to be honest, i stole this cookbook from my parents the year after it came out so they would not miss it.
the book is comprised of recipies from the staff of the maui memorial hospital. if you thought hawaiian food was only bbqs, spam and luaus, you are sorely mistaken. its a real cultural mixing pot
highlights from the book include total winners like: the refreshing tofu salad (p. 167); the portuguese bean soup (p.94); the mauna loa cheese cake (p.54); and stillwell's crab cakes (p.149)- i went to high school down the street from stillwell's bakery and cannot...

Death Warmed Over: Funeral Food, Rituals, and Customs from Around the Worldby Lisa Rogak
I bought this book on a whim from my friends book store and have found it to be a great recipe book and a great read- double bonus!
First off, it is filled with recipes from all over the world- Mongolia, Ghana, Switzerland, Mexico and everything in between.
The book also details the historical and modern funeral rights from the various contries whose recipes they detail. Really interesting stuff. Did you know funeral rights in Ghana are all about using liquid to help move the spirit from the body? I certainly didn't.
The Spicy Pineapple Salad (Indonesia, p. 71) is wonderful. Next on...

I would think that you could easily make it vegan by replacing the shrimp paste with soy sauce or something equally flavorful.No likes Can’t Like Unlike Like No likes
