her family and famous musicians, and then through her first
cookbook, the New York Timesbestseller LaBelleCuisine: Recipes to
Sing About, which has sold more than 300,000 copies. Today, it's

pies were completely sold out at WalMart stores across the country.
Would-be pie scalpers cropped up and the pies, which retail for
$3.48 a piece, were selling on eBay for $45. Wal-Mart sold one pie
per second for 72 hours straight. Now, for the first time, fans of
Patti's pie can make their own and more Patti classics! Patti's
dessert cookbook will be filled with her favorite recipes for pies,
cakes, cookies, and puddings, as well as movingstories from her

A sweet baking book of fantastically imaginative remixed Filipino
American dessert recipes, plus essays on the Filipino American
experience by baker-fundraiser Abi Balingit. When the pandemic
started her lonely work-from-home life in 2020, Abi Balingit
channeled all her energy into the one thing that brought her joy:
baking. In her tiny, dimly lit, shared kitchen, she produced
hundreds of "pasalubong" (souvenir) boxes filled with especially
creative treats that blended the Filipino treats and Western style
baked goods she grew up with. Each time, she'd sell out within
hours and donated the proceeds to support her community in need.
Now Abi shares some of these cult-favorite desserts with Mayumu
(which means "sweet" in one of the 8 major languages in
Philippines), an incredibly fresh baking book of 75 recipes that
span from the never-before-seen, incredibly inventive flavor
combinations that Abi dreamed up, to the more familiar, classic
Filipino favorites: Adobo Chocolate Chip Cookie Strawberry
Shortcake Sapin-Sapin (Rice Cakes) Ube Macapuno Molten Lava Cakes
Matcha Pastillas Melon Chicharron Crumble Halo-Halo Baked Alaska
Throughout, essays following Abi's heritage and self-discovery
introduce the flavors and experiences that have shaped her life,
from visiting the motherland and her parents' birthplace in
Pampanga, Philippines, to California where she grew up and went to
school, to her now home Brooklyn, NY. This beautiful book is a
celebration of the Filipino American experience, perfect for home
bakers wanting both nostalgic and excitingly new recipes.

All Arto der Haroutunian's twelve cookbooks written in the 1980s
became classics; it was his belief that the rich culinary tradition
of the Middle East is the main source of many of our Western
cuisines and his books were intended as an introduction to that
tradition. His Sweets & Desserts of the Middle East is regarded
as the seminal work on the subject but it had been out of print for
almost thirty years. At last here in a new edition is the Middle
Eastern cookbook that everyone wants. In this book he takes us on a
sumptuous and erudite tour of one of the delights of Middle Eastern
cuisine. Sweets and desserts occupy a special place in those lands
where natutal food resources can sometimes be limited. The people
have made supreme the art of creating delights from very little and
in doing do have enriched their world with wafer-thin pastries,
luscious halvas, crunchy biscuits, exotic fruits and cool
refreshing sorbets. Many Middle Eastern desserts are very sweet
(literally soaked in honey or syrup) and yet their variety is
infinite. It reflects the multifarious origins and races of the
people of the region and combines ancient traditions and modern
influences. One basic sweet may have been adapted in a dozen
different ways. Tantalisingly fragrant, sweet and succulent or dry
and spiced with the aroma of the East they transport us as if by
magic carpet to the exotic lands of the orient. There are recipes
for sesame and date baklavas, almond and pistachio coated biscuits,
tempting stuffed fruits, rich mousses, delicate sorbets and syrups,
jams and preserves, all of which may tempt you to conjure up these
Middle Eastern delicacies in your own home.
