TASTE CANADA AWARDS GOLD WINNER
100 recipes to celebrate the bold flavors, bright colors, and fresh tastes of the Middle East.
In Arabic, "habibi" translates to "my darling," and it is this loving endearment, reserved for the closest friends and family, that permeates every recipe that Canadian-Egyptian chef and television host Shahir Massoud has to offer.
     Sharing mouthwatering street foods and casual everyday staples, as well as new interpretations of traditional dishes, Eat, Habibi, Eat! encourages you to explore the rich spices and irresistible dishes of the Middle East at home. And Shahir's personal stories, all told in his warm and playful voice, are just as captivating as his food (you'll burst out laughing at his mother's insistence that the Egyptian people would never forgive him if he altered the definitive recipe for ful mudammas).
     Combining his family's heritage meals with his French and Italian chef training, Shahir teaches you how to build the ultimate Egyptian pantry using some special food items, but mostly ingredients that can be found at your local grocery store. From there, you'll dive in to the over 100 mouthwatering recipes for every meal and time of day.
     From classic mainstays like Shakshuka, Shawarma and Fattoush Salad, to modern plates like Chickpea Fries with Harissa Mayo and Coffee and Coriander Beef Ribs with Pomegranate BBQ Sauce, Eat, Habibi, Eat! is a feast for the eyes and the taste buds. Whether you already love Middle Eastern cuisine or have never heard of sumac before, Shahir's sumptuous book will inspire you to try something new in the kitchen and have fun doing it.

      Following the model of some recent cookbooks, this is chef and CBC TV host Massoud's take on classic dishes from his parents' homeland. In Massoud's case, the emphasis is on typical Egyptian dishes, inflected by his Canadian upbringing, French culinary training, and professional experience cooking in restaurants like New York's Del Posto. With its personable, often humorous tone, Massoud's first cookbook will inspire readers to try something new--whether a new recipe or a new culinary career. It has something for everyone, including desserts like Stuffed Arabic Pancakes with Maple-Glazed Apples, and kid-friendly snacks like Chickpea Fries. The straightforward recipes and easy-to-follow instructions are presented in a clean layout that clearly displays yields, time commitments, and ingredients. The book also includes a helpful rundown of pantry staples for Egpytian cooking, as well as beautiful photos of the finished dishes. VERDICT Recommended for home cooks, Massoud's attractive cookbook is a fine offering of modern, Egyptian-inspired dishes.--Bonnie Poquette, Milwaukee
