Cook Book: Home Cooking: Recipes for Multicultural Gatherings

This book is a stunning collection of delightful and diverse recipes to include in your culinary library, or give as a gift to someone special. The recipes are easy to follow, with step-by-step directions for preparing classic dishes from around the world. In this book, you will find time-honored Persian delicacies, hearty Moroccan Tajine, Incan inspired cuisine from Latin America, signature dishes from East Asia, as well as more light and delicate bistro-style meals for the modern foodie. Flavors are further enhanced with delicate rice dishes, legumes and chili loaded mole, and chutneys. I have taken a standard shrimp appetizer, traditionally prepared with butter, garlic, and white wine and creatively enhanced its complexity and flavor with beautiful ingredients like harissa, orange juice, and saffron, and wrapped them in corn husks for smokiness. Whether you use these  culinary secrets for important family celebrations or more intimate gatherings among your vegetarian or omnivores multicultural friends, they are bound to nourish your heart and evoke deep memories.
