Navigation very poor ... Updated: Navigation worse than poor, pretty much unuseable
Reating is for Kindle Version ONLY!
This rating applies to navigation only, which for a cookbook I find very important. There is no link between the book's index and the text. In places the book refers one to a specific page but the kindle software (on mac) provides no ability to find such a page.
UPDATE: Since I wrote the above I've had time to read more of this cookbook. I would recommend the printed edition. The recipes seem authentic and sound good.
However, if you wish to use the book for cooking I suggest that you DO NOT BUY THE KINDLE EDITION. It seem that one cannot return a kindle book so I'm feeling cheated by amazon.com's sloppy work. There are numerous references to specific pages that one cannot find except by going page by page (which is certainly not how I use a cookbook).
UPDATE II: Seems I am going to get a refund. I'm no longer irritated, just disappointed.
A good resource for middle-eastern cooking (for vegetarians and non-vegetarians too)
As a vegetarian I prefer dishes that are already vegetarian to begin with, rather than having to modify recipes (it doesn't always work out that well), so this book is going to be a staple in my cookbook repertoire. I would highly recommend this to those who love middle-eastern food. The book is a gem.
great! even if you're nto a vegetarian
i lived for many years in the middle east, and i think this is one of the best, concise books that i have ever read on the subject. plus if you're vegetarian, it's just one more bonus. highly recommended!
