Fragrance of the Earth: Lebanese Home Cooking | Nada Saleh
"Here is a cookbook with a difference: a mouthwatering selection of traditional recipes, as prepared in Lebanese homes, that are also ideal for today's health-conscious public. Accompanied by superlative full-colour photographs and wood engravings, the text is full of health tips and entertaining and informative anecdotes about ingredients, dishes and the culinary tradition of Lebanon." "Nadeh Saleh, who is of Lebanese origin and also a Western-educated nutritionist, has cleverly adapted the recipes of her homeland for a healthy and nutritious diet. While respecting the authentic flavours of the dishes, she has, for example, reduced the amounts of saturated fats and substituted olive oil, and emphasized ingredients that are rich in mineral salts, vitamins and antioxidants."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
