I want to cook everything in here. I haven't had the chance yet, and it's due back at the library. Looks to be as good as it's sibling, "Plenty".

amazing cookbook that combines a cultural history of food with authentic recipes from Israel's many cultures. I'm so happy to bring the foods I'm missing a lot back into my home with these recipes.

Beautiful cookbook, with several Turkish, Armenian and Georgian-influenced recipes, so I knew I had to grab a copy.
So far, we've made:
Hummus (p.114) - Made this several times, and it always turns out excellent, though the portion is quite large and it doesn't keep long. I serve with drizzled olive oil and sumac. Perfect for gatherings.
Butternut squash & tahini spread (p.69) - Wow! This one was a crowd-pleaser, and I expect we'll be preparing this often in the fall when there's an abundance of squash. I used pekmez instead of date syrup and toasted the sesame seeds.
Mejadra (p.120) Delicious! Loved the rich coriander taste and the fried onions were on point. The only thing is that it is a LOT of onions to fry, which meant that the the recipe took much longer than I expected. A good, hearty non-meat dish.
Lamb-stuffed quince with pomegranate & cilantro (p.155) - All signs point to this being a delicious dish -- it's got a ton of spices, and my favorites - quince and pomegranate. The lamb mixture was top-notch, but overall, we found the dish to be too sweet. I think I'll stick to using quince for desserts.
