Julie Taboulie's Lebanese Kitchen: Authentic Recipes for Fresh and Flavorful Mediterranean Home Cooking Hardcover – June 6, 2017

This is an absolutely beautiful and oh so easy to use book! Julie explains everything so creating your favorite recipes at home (without losing any of the authentic flavors you love!) is explained and broken into easy to follow steps. I love that before each recipe is a little blurb with interesting facts or just a sweet story about the dish. The “pantry” section is super helpful. And the sweets and drinks section! swoon! This book has been used and loved since the day I received it as a gift, and has found a place on my “top shelf” of cookbooks. (The rest of you that always need one more cookbook know exactly what I’m talking about :) This book is great not only for beginners just trying to prepare a dish from a new cuisine, but is also for those that have enjoyed turning their kitchen into an international cooking experience. Enjoy!

I loved this cookbook. Had all the old Lebanese recipes my husband's grandmother used to make for the traditional Saturday Night Family Dinner. And surprised at the number of recipes I had not seen before. Lovely photos and easy to follow instructions and lots of advice based on her lifetime of eating and cooking Lebanese Food. The difference between Grandma and Julie, is that Julie has them all written down and not memorized as a young girl, learning how to cook. The only differences is that lamb was expensive and hard to get in US at time family came here, so used ground beef, from butcher, to substitute, and always came out good. Thank you for your lovely cookbook!

I Love Julie's PBS show, and I love how she presents her recipes. I am delighted to find this book is as sunny, bright, and happy as Julie presents on her show. The photos are gorgeous, the recipes are a delightful read with some of Julie's personal stories woven in. I can't wait to start making more Lebanese dishes using Julie's cheerful flair!

Wife Loved this book

Love all the recipes. Beautifully put together.

I love this book and the food is fresh and easy to follow for most of it. Some ingredients you need to get at a specialty store. But so good. Taboulie rocks.

I always swear that I won't by anymore cookbooks, but I've watched Julie on TV and was charmed--not only by her fun presentation, but by the authenticity of her recipes. I've recently turned vegetarian and have been interested in trying the ancient grain, Freekeh, for which she has an excellent recipe. This is not a vegetarian cookbook, but everything I've tried so far has been wonderful. Lots of hints about the secrets of a fabulous hummus and so many other exotic foods made easy!

I watched her PBS show whenever I could catch it, I love this cuisine. When our kitchen reno is finished enough to use, I will try every recipe. Great sale price also.
