On a trip to Turkey as a young woman, chef Ana Sortun fell in love with the food and learned the traditions of Turkish cooking from local women. Inspired beyond measure, Sortun opened her own restaurant in Cambridge, Massachusetts, the award-winning Oleana, where she creates her own interpretations of dishes incorporating the incredible array of delicious spices and herbs used in eastern regions of the Mediterranean. In this gorgeously photographed book, Sortun shows readers how to use this philosophy of spice to create wonderful dishes in their own homes. She reveals how the artful use of spices and herbs rather than fat and cream is key to the full, rich flavors of Mediterranean cuisine -- and the way it leaves you feeling satisfied afterward. The book is organized by spice, detailing the ways certain spices complement one another and how they flavor other foods and creating in home cooks a kind of sense-memory that allows for a more intuitive use of spice in their own dishes. The more than one hundred tantalizing spice categories and recipes include: Beef Shish Kabobs with Sumac Onions and Parsley Butter Chickpea and Potato Terrine Stuffed with Pine Nuts, Spinach, Onion, and Tahini Crispy Lemon Chicken with Za’atar Golden Gazpacho with Condiments Fried Haloumi Cheese with Pear and Spiced Dates Absolutely alive with spices and herbs, Ana Sortun’s recipes will intrigue and inspire readers everywhere.

With 100 recipes, this is the first book to explore the vibrant food culture of Macau—an east-meets-west melting pot of Chinese, Portuguese, Malaysian, and Indian foodways—as seen through the lens of the cult favorite Chicago restaurant, Fat Rice. An hour’s ferry ride from Hong Kong, on the banks of the Pearl River in China, lies Macau—a modern, cosmopolitan city with an unexpected history. For centuries, Macau was one of the world’s greatest trading ports: a Portuguese outpost and crossroads along the spice route, where travelers from Europe, Southeast Asia, South Asia, and mainland China traded resources, culture, and food. The Adventures of Fat Rice is the story of how two Chicago chefs discovered and fell in love with this fascinating and, at least until now, unheralded cuisine. With dishes like Minchi (a classic Macanese meat hash), Po Kok Gai (a Portuguese-influenced chicken curry with chouriço and olives), and Arroz Gordo (if paella and fried rice had a baby), now you, too, can bring the eclectic and wonderfully unique—yet enticingly familiar—flavors of Macau into your own kitchen.

A stunning and comprehensive compendium of modern Middle Eastern recipes. The recipes in this luminous volume are inspired by countries that make up the Middle East—from North Africa and Moorish Spain through Turkey, Lebanon, Syria, and Jordan to Iran and the Arabian Peninsula. Malouf reflects the Middle Eastern spirit of generosity and sharing with the 300-plus recipes organized into seven sections including Soups, Small Dishes, Large Dishes, Side Dishes, Bakery, Sweet, and Larder. As refined and exquisite as the dishes look, they're all achievable in a home kitchen. Try goat cheese in vine leaves, seared scallops with almond crumbs or Egyptian eggs in dukkah to start, perhaps followed by veiled quail with rice, date and rose petal stuffing, or cardamom and honey-glazed duck breasts. For a red meat fix, there is the slow-cooked lamb with quinces or the whole beef fillet in coriander-peppercorn rub. Try the salmon grilled with fennel, lime and sumac with a honey-roasted pear and walnut Salad, wild mushroom couscous, or seven vegetable tagine. And to finish on a sweet note, there's sticky ginger cake, profiteroles with thick fig cream, watermelon and rosewater sorbet or even a Turkish Delight martini. Malouf brings the exotic spices and delicious flavors of Middle Eastern cuisine to life in your home!
