Nora's Recipes from Egypt

Every country in the exotic region along the Mediterranean Sea has developed a cuisine that is similar yet basically distinctive from those of its neighbors. With Egyptian food, the distinction is even greater: it has captured tile best features of them all and melded them subtly with basic recipes that have long been popular along the Nile. Here – at last in English – Nora George presents easy-to-follow recipes that she learned and practiced while growing up in Cairo. Whether you are searching for a new experience in appetizers, soups, salads, meats, seafood, meatless dishes, pickles or desserts, Nora George tells you how to proceed and where to find the ingredients in your neighborhood.
