Shuk

Shuk From Market to Table Israeli Home Cooking

By Einat Admony and Janna Gur

This is a beautiful cookbook.  The first thing about this book that strikes  you as soon as you open the cover is the incredible photography.  The colors are rich and vibrant bringing the the food and the market to life.  Your mouth waters at the pictures of each dish and then you read the ingredients.  Now you can practically taste the food emanating right off the page.

The ingredient lists are short .  There is great detail in how to make some of the spices combinations that may be hard to find in the United States.  The detail and explanations behind the Shuk, itself, an Israeli market, and each recipe also is just fun reading.

You will enjoy just reading and sharing this cookbook with friends.  The added treat will be savoring the food just for yourself , with your family or for company.
