Description
Falastin: A Cookbook is a soulful tour of Palestinian cooking, shaped by the author's personal story and the history of Palestine. The book features 120 recipes born of the country's unique geography, culinary traditions, and the resourcefulness of its cooks.
The story of Palestine's food is deeply tied to its people, with recipes that were once closely guarded family secrets being shared and passed down to ensure their survival. In Falastin, Sami Tamimi retraces the lineage and evolution of his country's cuisine, taking readers on a journey from the Mediterranean Sea to the Jordan River, and from the Galilee to the coastal cities of Haifa and Akka.
With its rich history and cultural significance, Falastin is a cookbook that not only showcases the flavors and ingredients of Palestine, but also tells a story of resilience and community.
