Charming and simple
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
This book is humble in appearance, not one of the snazzy cookbooks with glossy photos and "new takes on old dishes." It's not printed on great paper and doesn't even have line drawings. However, what it does have is a double-handful of simple-but-delicious recipes that even I can't get too terribly wrong, and I've been enjoying them very much in the couple of weeks since I received this book. My interest is Greek cookery, but this cookbook is so wonderful, I plan to chase down the other Healing Arts ethnic vegetarian cookbooks!
It's okay

I'll tell you what: The book is as good as the other reviewer states. However, if you've been cooking mediterranean food in general or greek food in general for a while and are looking to expand you collection of cookbooks on the subject or your knowledge, it won't hurt to pass on this one. It is a very basic greek food cookbook; Rice with Cheese and Butter, Tomato Salad, Stuffed Grape Leaves, Lentil Soup, nothing you haven't seen before. But, if you are just startting to explore the beauty that is the mediterranean food, then, by all means, this is a good book to start with!. Happy Cooking!.

Finally a recipe for stuffed grape leaves where I didn't burst the leaves and make a big mess. I also love that there are recommendations for side dishes/dips to serve with the grape leaves. Most of the recipes have a note at the end that tells you an extra tip like this or if you can freeze it etc. There are some wonderful moussaka recipes too which we really love. We were in Greece about a year ago and these recipes definitely bring back memories. There are no photos in here but it doesn't really need it. Itr has all the classic dishes that you'd think of for Greek cooking. Both Greek and translated names of the dishes are provided.
