Inhaltsangabe

Middle Eastern food is meant for sharing, and in The Jewelled Table, Bethany Kehdy departs from the common mezze theme to explore the way locals cook, eat and entertain at home.

The book and its chapters are ordered in the style one goes about ‘jewelling’ a table in the Middle East, whether for everyday meals or for celebratory feasts, always much inspired by the seasons and the ritual of hospitality.

Featuring over 100 ancient and modern recipes – including appetisers, drinks, show-stopping mains, fuss-free sweets and more – and menu plans that take the stress out of entertaining, Bethany illustrates that with a few key ingredients, this is the perfect fit for every occasion. With her signature flair for creative and tantalising flavour combinations, Bethany introduces dishes such as Winter’s tabbouleh, Orange blossom chicken barida, Charred asparagus & dried lime soup and more. This is Middle Eastern food like you’ve never seen it.

Set against the backdrop of beautiful location shots, and Bethany’s charming anecdotes with a lens on history, lineage and etymology, The Jewelled Table is an essential cookbook for anyone who loves the flavours of the Middle East.

Von der hinteren Coverseite

In The Jewelled Table, Bethany Kehdy explores the way Middle Easterners cook, eat and entertain, and the rituals of doing so at home, highlighting why the Middle East has such a rich and intricate tradition of hospitality in part much inspired by the hospitable desert.

Over 80 ancient and every day recipes from the Middle East are reinterpreted and made accessible for cooking in a western kitchen without losing their integrity. Find out the secret to nailing hummus once and for all, whip up a Persian herb frittata and make an impressive, delicious Ox cheek, shallot and rhubarb stew. From simple weeknight suppers to lazy brunches, Sunday roasts, celebratory feasts and last-minute mayhem, Bethany illustrates that with a few key ingredients, Middle Eastern food is the perfect fit for every occasion.

Featuring menu plans, detailed instructions on how to cook the recipes, as well as charming anecdotes throughout from Bethany's own experiences in the Middle East, all set to the backdrop of beautiful location shots, The Jewelled Table is an essential cookbook for anyone who loves the flavours of the Middle East.
