Geat cookbook at a great price
I would highly reccomend this cookbook to anyone wanting to learn about Turkish cooking. I was in Istanbul recently and the local book store wanted over $100.00 USD for it. My girlfriend and I took a cooking class our last night there and when asked about a good cookbook the owner/chef pulled this one off the shelf. It's a beautiful cookbook with great recipes and beautiful photographs. You won't be dissapointed.
Fabulous Value - Wonderful Cookbook
I ordered 12 copies of the version for $14,00 listed as a remainder, for gifts and was astonished to see that the book was a hardbound reprint from 2009, absolutely new and in great condition, no sign of a remainder stamp or anything similar - just a reprint of the fabulous cookbook I had bought years ago in Istanbul and used often - great, authentic recipes. I have a number of Turkish cookbooks - this is by far the best.
A Comprehensive Cookbook
Don't skip over the wonderful "Introduction" and "Essential Elements of Turkish Cuisine" before you start to use this book. Classic Turkish Cooking presents a wide variety of Turkish dishes, with generally good directions and clear photos of finished products. Don't let the "aubergine," "minced lamb" and "sponge" hold you back - we can all figure out what those are - right? But I must admit I'm not exactly sure what "beef scraps" are - or "strong unbleached flour." No matter. Just plunge in and try these excellent recipes. Most of the more unusual ingredients can be found in a Middle Eastern market or Indian market. An excellent book for those who like Turkish cooking - and who doesn't?
