15.99 GBP*

Description

Sumac is a deep red spice, prized in both traditional and contemporary Syrian cuisine, that adds a vibrant lift to all kinds of food. This book includes over 80 recipes inspired by writer Anas Atassi's family food traditions, along with the travels, celebrations and memories of loved ones in Syria that have influenced the cuisine. It includes the wonderful Friday breakfasts he'd eat in his grandmother's garden, his mother's sfeeha (flatbreads with minced beef), the falafel he now loves to make for his friends, and a rich array of other mezze, salads, meats, vegetables and desserts. Sumac is an evocative and inspiring food journey that offers a glimpse into Syrian food culture's historical roots, which through millennia of cultural traditions and neighbouring influences have been shared and shaped to perfection.
