  • {Download PDF} the Book of New Israeli Food Ebook Free Download
    THE BOOK OF NEW ISRAELI FOOD PDF, EPUB, EBOOK Janna Gur | 304 pages | 26 Aug 2008 | Schocken Books | 9780805212242 | English | New York, United States The Book of New Israeli Food by Janna Gur: | : Books A modern-day classic and a personal favorite, this cookbook is written by power foodie Janna Gur and her team, with gorgeous photos by Eilon Paz. In Jerusalem, London-based celebrity chef Yotam Ottolenghi and then partner Sami Tamimi rehash their Jerusalem childhoods from different sides of the tracks with equal warmth and character, while giving a complete history of the volatile city and showing off its most charming corners through positively stunning photography. Sure, the recipes might contain an eclectic mix of 20 ingredients, but they are all fresh, wholesome and inspiring. This book belongs on every coffee table, if only as a discussion piece, and for its celebration of Sephardic cuisine. The scrumptiously delicious and herbaceously rich recipes are only a bonus. From Israeli baker Uri Scheft of the famous Breads Bakery, which has several branches in both New York City and Tel Aviv, this book covers a wide range of influences on Israeli baking and includes hundreds of bread recipes, alongside other beloved Israeli baked goods such as Krembo and hamentaschen both with updated twists. This book focuses on historical fact and culture as much as the beautiful and more remotely found dishes and stories of the region. This homey book comes from the New York-based Israeli chef who brought gourmet falafel and upscale Israeli dining to America with her popular restaurants, Balaboosta , Taim and Bar Bolonat.

  • Middle Eastern Cuisine
    MIDDLE EASTERN CUISINE The term Middle Eastern cuisine refers to the various cuisines of the Middle East. Despite their similarities, there are considerable differences in climate and culture, so that the term is not particularly useful. Commonly used ingredients include pitas, honey, sesame seeds, sumac, chickpeas, mint and parsley. The Middle Eastern cuisines include: Arab cuisine Armenian cuisine Cuisine of Azerbaijan Assyrian cuisine Cypriot cuisine Egyptian cuisine Israeli cuisine Iraqi cuisine Iranian (Persian) cuisine Lebanese cuisine Palestinian cuisine Somali cuisine Syrian cuisine Turkish cuisine Yemeni cuisine ARAB CUISINE Arab cuisine is defined as the various regional cuisines spanning the Arab World from Iraq to Morocco to Somalia to Yemen, and incorporating Levantine, Egyptian and others. It has also been influenced to a degree by the cuisines of Turkey, Pakistan, Iran, India, the Berbers and other cultures of the peoples of the region before the cultural Arabization brought by genealogical Arabians during the Arabian Muslim conquests. HISTORY Originally, the Arabs of the Arabian Peninsula relied heavily on a diet of dates, wheat, barley, rice and meat, with little variety, with a heavy emphasis on yogurt products, such as labneh (yoghurt without butterfat). As the indigenous Semitic people of the peninsula wandered, so did their tastes and favored ingredients. There is a strong emphasis on the following items in Arabian cuisine: 1. Meat: lamb and chicken are the most used, beef and camel are also used to a lesser degree, other poultry is used in some regions, and, in coastal areas, fish. Pork is not commonly eaten--for Muslim Arabs, it is both a cultural taboo as well as being prohibited under Islamic law; many Christian Arabs also avoid pork as they have never acquired a taste for it.
