1 total work
"The Feast of Flavours" series is a culinary adventure, offering an insight into the exciting culinary traditions of European and Asian cultures. Each edition offers a fascinating introduction into the unique culinary heritage of each country, featuring a collection of 42 fully illustrated recipes, including cooking techniques and a detailed glossary describing several of the more unfamiliar ingredients. Each recipe is accompanied by clear and concise step-by-step instructions and photographs. The latest addition to the series "Feast of Flavours" from the Iranian Kitchen explores the enticing and magical flavours of the Middle East. Iranian gastronomy is founded on the principle that food nourishes the body, giving it life and good health and it is for this reason that the cook of the house is always viewed with a deep sense of respect. Recipes include, lamb marinated in spices and grilled on skewers, resulting in juicy pieces of meat served with flat bread and yogurt; and rich meat stews, which are left to cook slowly, in order to absorb the full flavour and aroma of their ingredients and served with rice.
