Interestingly, even though this cookbook has been around awhile, multiple copies are still being checked out because it simply delivers on many fronts. I have personally borrowed it on several occasions, made multiple dishes from the…

This cookbook is best applied during summer when the staple produce called for, like cucumbers, tomatoes and eggplant, are at their peak. My favorite recipe from this cookbook however can be made year-round: Basmati Rice with Toasted Orzo.…

A beautiful cookbook. I love the concept of the two chefs, the photojournalism woven in with the recipes, and the balance of simple and more complex middle eastern dishes.

Having watched Yotam on tv in the UK, and been very impressed with the freshness of his cooking, this book didn't disappoint. Very interesting learning a bit about the people and what they eat. Have bought pomegranate molasses to try his…

This is more than a cookbook; it's an introduction to the wildly complex food cultures of Jerusalem viewed by two native sons, one Jewish, one Muslim. It's a plea for communication and cooperation, a proof that the city's inhabitants have…

I've cooked a number of the recipes for a dinner party and everything came out delicious. Love the photography, the detailed touches...more than just a cookbook. Having visited Israel, Yotam & Sami deliver the real deal!
