On a trip to Turkey as a young woman, chef Ana Sortun fell in love
with the food and learned the traditions of Turkish cooking from
local women. Inspired beyond measure, Sortun opened her own
restaurant in Cambridge, Massachusetts, the award-winning Oleana,
where she creates her own interpretations of dishes incorporating
the incredible array of delicious spices and herbs used in eastern
regions of the Mediterranean.
In this gorgeously photographed book, Sortun shows readers how
to use this philosophy of spice to create wonderful dishes in their
own homes. She reveals how the artful use of spices and herbs
rather than fat and cream is key to the full, rich flavors of
Mediterranean cuisine -- and the way it leaves you feeling
satisfied afterward. The book is organized by spice, detailing the
ways certain spices complement one another and how they flavor
other foods and creating in home cooks a kind of sense-memory that
allows for a more intuitive use of spice in their own dishes. The
more than one hundred tantalizing spice categories and recipes
include: Beef Shish Kabobs with Sumac Onions and Parsley Butter
Chickpea and Potato Terrine Stuffed with Pine Nuts, Spinach, Onion,
and Tahini Crispy Lemon Chicken with Za'atar Golden Gazpacho with
Condiments Fried Haloumi Cheese with Pear and Spiced Dates
Absolutely alive with spices and herbs, Ana Sortun's recipes
will intrigue and inspire readers everywhere.
