Traditional Kurdish Food

HARDBACK Copies available.


Traditional Kurdish Food is perhaps the most comprehensive collection of Kurdish culinary heritage available in book form in English. Here you will find unique insights into the diverse cuisine and culinary customs of regional Kurdistan that have never been presented in this way. 


This book reveals to the world new tasty and resourceful recipes from this ancient land. It is the key that unlocks a secret door behind which lies the origins of so many dishes that we love and take for granted today. 


Fresh ingredients and liberal use of spices and herbs are intrinsic to these recipes. Some of the recipe names may seem familiar - kabab, paqlawa-albeit delivered with a distinctly Kurdish flavour; others will be delightfully new. Each recipe is illustrated with a mouth-watering colour photograph.
