'To write about the foods of all the countries that surround the
Mediterranean could seem an impossibly ambitious task. Some fifteen
countries border the sea, to say nothing of its many islands, and
they span three continents. Yet when one starts to consider the
matter it becomes clear that all these countries have a great deal
in common, and the task seems simpler than first imagined. It is as
if the sea itself has imposed a strong unifying effect on the areas
surrounding it. Different as the countries may be, in terms of
race, politics, religion and culture, in the end we are forced to
acknowledge that food is based on quite other matters.' So says
Arabella Boxer in the Introduction to her meticulously researched
and beautifully organized book which constitutes a gastronomic
grand tour of the region where spices, olives, tomatoes, yogurt,
salads, fruit and the clever use of fish and meat combine so
satisfyingly and memorably. Within these pages she conjures up the
rich and colourful world of Mediterranean food.
