 Rating:  - Paula Wolfert knows about foodEver since I first purchased her cookbook, Couscous and Other Good Food from Morocco, I have been a fan of Paula Wolfert. Her recipes are not always easy, but they always produce great food. Buy the book. Rating: - A fantastic cookbook--a favorite for yearsI adore this cookbook and never tire of reading the recipes and fascinating intros to each. Paula Wolfert does an amazing job a painting a picture of the food--you can almost taste it even before you walk into the kitchen. I found the plethora of kibbeh recipes exciting and it was a real thrill to have them work on my first attempt. Unlike many of the reviewers, I don't find the ingredient lists 'esoteric' (this may simply be b/c I spend way too much time ordering spices from Penzeys and visiting Indian groceries), but I have also had great success when when skipping or substituting ingredients. My all time favorite recipe, and worth the price of the cookbook alone, is the "Split Tummies" which are softened eggplant stuffed with a lamb/spice /pinenut mixture (I often use turkey) baked over a bed of vegetables. At the height of summer, when the garden is bursting with peppers, tomatoes, greens and eggplant, this cookbook is a joy! Rating: - Wonderful cookbook for the serious cook What a wonderful cookbook for the serious cook who is interested in new recipes, other cultures and healthy food with a nice mix of history of a given recipe or dish. Ironically it was a negative review or slam, about the authors many (50) Kibbeh recipes that perked my interest and made me want the book. So when I got the cookbook within a couple days of ordering it I went straight to the kibbeh section and had to smile, because it is so interesting because it reminded me of a favorite Italian cookbook with a lot of recipes for different meat balls, or a cookbook I have that has dozens of different types of hamburger recipes. It's awesome. The book is big and the variety of recipes is vast, with some of my favorites that call for chickpeas, or roasted peppers, fish or chicken. Am a huge fan of pilaf and love her recipes. Love the Macedonian chickpeas, eggplants and tomatoes on page 252, which is easy to make and will make an impression for family and friends. Rating: - The One Book I was looking for!!!The person who bitterly wrote that this book has "millions of kibbeh recipes..." actually did a favor to me. His or her derogatory statement triggered my purchase: I finally found the book I was looking for!! This book made it to the list of winners of Julia Child's Awards, and it is by far the best guide to prepare dishes like Kibbeh or kibbi I have found. Kibbeh is the national dish of Lebanon and a staple of Middle Eastern Cuisine. A really nice treat to all! My kibbehs turned out GREAT for the first time!!! My frustration is over!! The "exotic" spices can be purchased online, just like the book. Not a big deal to me.
