Recenzijas

[ Making Levantine Cuisine] suggests that food and the fiery debates around it can shed light on histories of inequality and struggle in the region... By examining the food history, culture, and politics of the modern Levant, the pieces reveal a culinary history that is, as one contributor put it, 'simultaneously hidden and deliciously obvious.' (The Nation) A comprehensive and inviting account of Levantine Cuisine...As an inviting and accessible read for food scholars, ethnographers, graduate students, and home cooks, this edited volume engages readers to discuss method, theory, recipes, geography, and research in a new light. Whether discussing kebabs, pistachios, or hummus, the volume offers so much to think with, cook, and snack on. (Food Anthropology)
