Perfect for you if...

You want authentic Middle Eastern home cooking that doesn't require obscure ingredients or complicated techniques.
You're looking for a cookbook with genuine vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free options woven naturally throughout, not bolted on as afterthoughts.
You appreciate recipes paired with real tips and tricks from someone who actually grew up cooking these meals, not just food styling them.

Maybe not for you if...

You prefer quick weeknight dinners and are put off by recipes requiring fresh herbs, spice blends, or a bit of prep time.
You're seeking avant-garde molecular gastronomy or fusion interpretations rather than traditional, straight-forward Lebanese cooking.
You want minimal instruction and prefer recipe lists over the hands-on guidance and context this book provides.

About this book

Julie Ann Sageer, host of PBS's Cooking with Julie Taboulie and Julie Taboulie's Lebanese Kitchen, shares 125 recipes for Lebanese home cooking. Since childhood, Sageer—nicknamed Julie Taboulie by her family—has cooked the meals of her Lebanese heritage. Each recipe includes hands-on instructions, tips, and tricks for preparing Middle Eastern dishes with fresh, seasonal ingredients. The collection ranges from classics like falafel, shawarma, and taboulie to warming Bazilla (a stew of tomato, green pea, and lamb) and honey and rosewater-infused desserts. Recipes cover how to make fresh labneh (strained yogurt) and multi-purpose spice mixes. Beyond meat and chicken dishes, the book features vegetarian, pescatarian, vegan, and gluten-free options, often requiring no substitutions. Every chapter includes dishes for various dietary preferences and restrictions. Dishes range from familiar hummus with variations to panfried chickpea and bulgur patties, yogurt soup with lamb dumplings, and pickled baby eggplant stuffed with peppers.
