Arabian Flavours by Salah Jamal
Arab cooking has traditionally been the province of Arab women, who have passed down their culinary secrets by word of mouth. Salah Jamal, a Palestinian by birth (and a man), has spent a lifetime collecting recipes from all over the Arab world. He reveals an appetising feast of dishes, from the ubiquitous falafel and hommos to stuffed vegetables and stews, couscous, fish and oven-cooked meats, stuffed whole lamb, as well as sweets and traditional drinks. As accompanying side dishes, Salah invites us to savour slices of real Arab life in his witty, evocative recollections of his childhood and picaresque travels in the Maghreb. Tragi-comic tales of Lybyan fanatics, dextrous Lebanese and devious Bedouin women. More than just a cookery book Arabian Flavours offers us a rare insight into the real Arab kitchen and real Arab family life.
Salah Jamal left Palestine to study medicine and today is a professor of Cultural Diversity at the University of Vic, Barcelona. He is one of Spain's leading academics, attends conferences around the world and is an expert on the Arab-Israeli conflict.
