O knihe

Flavors of Lebanon is a collection of recipes from the northern part of Lebanon and an expansion of the previously published first edition Flavors of Lebanon by the same authors.

I was born in the beautiful town of Amioun in North Lebanon. Like many homes in our village, families and friends frequently get together to talk, drink, and enjoy great Lebanese food. My mother, Vera Shammas, known for her authentic Lebanese cooking, was known as a master cook and was quite often the cooking resource for the neighborhood ladies. Her recipes have been handed down to her from her mother and grandmother. She has expanded them with her cooking mastery, and they have become popular in our town among our family and friends. These recipes are truly a treasure that I have cherished all my life. As she comes often to visit me in the United States after I have immigrated to Iowa over twenty-four years ago, her recipes have remained the same and have always brought the best memories of my childhood. These delicious meals have been cooked with pride and reflected the richness of a culture existing in a small world that has been a crossroad for many civilizations and a mosaic of different customs and flavors. I was fortunate to see my wife, Gail, taking a deep interest in the North Lebanese cuisine. With a nursing background and a love for healthy food, Gail spent countless hours with my mom, Vera, in learning her recipes and writing them in ways that can be duplicated using western measures.

Flavors of Lebanon is a collection of these recipes that Vera Shammas and Gail Shammas share with us with passion and pride. These are the same authentic recipes that I grew up feasting on when I was a kid in Amioun, and now they are yours too to enjoy!
