Every one of the 12 cookbooks Arto der Haroutunian wrote became a
classic; his thoughtful, erudite writing helped to explain to
westerners the subtlety, complexity and diversity of Middle Eastern
and North African cooking. In Vegetarian Dishes from the Middle
East he collected together a treasury of recipes. The cooking of
vegetables is treated with reverence in the in the lands that make
up the rich and varied tapestry of the Middle East. The people
depend on the grains and pulses, nuts, vegetables and fruits of the
region for their daily food. Here are warm and spicy stuffed
vegetables, cool and fragrant soups, delicate preserves, pilafs,
breads, pickles, relishes and pastries. Arto der Haroutunian was
born in Aleppo, Syria in 1940 and grew up in the Levant, but came
to England with his parents as a child and remained here for most
of his life. He studied architecture at Manchester University and
established a career designing restaurants, clubs and hotels. In
1970, in partnership with his brother, he opened the first Armenian
restaurant in Manchester which eventually became a successful chain
of six restaurants and two hotels. Given his passion for cooking it
was a natural progression that he should then begin to write
cookery books as they combined his love of food with his great
interest in the history and culture of the region. 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. All the many
cookbooks written by Der Haroutunian have now been out of print for
many years and second hand copies fetch hundreds of pounds. He died
in 1987 at the untimely age of 47. He is survived by his wife and
son who still live in Manchester. As well as his passion for
cooking, Arto der Haroutunian was a painter of international
reputation who exhibited all over the world. His other interests
included composing music and translating Turkish, Arab, Persian and
Armenian authors. He was a true polymath.

Increasingly, people are shifting to vegetarian, plant-based, or
vegan diets. This shift is having profound effects on our social
interactions, and this is the focus of this book. Becoming a
vegetarian or vegan involves more than just changing your diet. It
can change how you socially and emotionally connect with family,
friends and the broader community, shape your outlook on life, and
open up new worlds and contacts. It can also lead to uncomfortable
situations, if dietary choices involving a rejection of meat are
read by others as an ethical and moral judgement on mainstream
dietary choices. This book adopts an innovative narrative approach,
and draws on stories across the globe to consider how the food
choices we make in our everyday lives can lead to complex, and
sometimes life changing, social consequences. The narratives cover
a range of topics, including the moral reasons behind some
individuals' decision to change their diets, the religious or
ecological considerations, and the potential health and social
ramifications. To date, the social consequences of selecting a
plant-based diet have been sorely overlooked in favour of texts
that have documented the benefits of such diets, and usually focus
on health, animal welfare and/or environmental issues, with the aim
of persuading readers to give up meat, and change to a 'healthy'
and/or 'sustainable' diet. Cultural studies texts considering
vegetarianism or veganism have typically targeted academic
audiences with analyses of how identity is constructed through food
and dietary choices. In contrast, this book offers a unique window
onto how our social lives are implicated in our food choices, and
is critical in understanding the importance of diet as embedded in
complex social processes.
